Abstract
Students' achievement in mathematics plays a crucial role in all round development of a child and is often associated with the future economic power and competitiveness of a country. Also RTE, 2009 enables every child to access quality mathematics education at elementary level. In this context, an attempt has been made in the present article to look at the progress made with regard to different components of mathematics of the students who have completed elementary education and whether there is a gender gap in that achievement. A Survey method was adopted to collect data from 400 students of 19 schools of South 24 Parganas, West Bengal by random sampling technique. A self made standardized achievement test in mathematics was treated as a tool. The result highlighted that students showed their best performance in the two components namely statistical representation and construction. In unitary method, weighed mean and percentage component they performed at disqualified level. It also revealed that while boys have done a little better achievement in most of the components than girls students, girls also outperformed boys in few components namely perimeter and area of plane figures, fundamental geometrical concept and geometrical transformation.
