A survey research design was developed and utilized for the study while 5 public primary schools and 5 UNICEF Girls Education Project (GEP) pilot primary schools in Dass, Dambam and Giade LGAs served as case studies. The population of the study was made up of 180 respondents selected out of a population of 283 persons using the Qualtrics quantitative sample size calculator and the purposive sampling technique. Both primary and secondary sources of data were used and hypothesis was tested using parametric statistics in the form of multiple regressions at 0. 05 significance level using the SPSS version 20 software. Finding showed that environmental factors in their various forms significantly determine girl-child education in Bauchi state. Therefore, it was recommended that the government should provide massive adult education to improve the educational level of all adults and parents/guardians in the state and Religious and Community leaders should be encouraged to enlighten community members on the benefits of girl-child education to remove any cultural, religious and gender bias associated with educating girls.
