Findings of the study showed that most of the science teachers are female having teaching positions I, where teaching experience were mostly less than ten years and majority have more than one ancillary function. Additionally, it revealed that science teachers teaching competence was at integrating level whereas studentsâ?? academic achievement was very satisfactory. Moreover, result showed that there was no significant difference among teaching competence in terms of their sex, teaching position, and teaching experience excluding the number of their ancillary function that is significantly different. Studentsâ?? academic achievement was significantly different in terms of teachersâ?? teaching position, teaching experience, and ancillary function excluding sex. Thereby, teaching competence was highly and positively associated with studentsâ?? academic achievement in science.
