STRATEGIES FOR EFFECTIVE SUPERVISION AND MANAGEMENT OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN AWKA SOUTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA
ABSTRACT
This study was conceived out of the fact that many primary schools especially in Anambra State lack the concept and apprehension of the role of supervision and good management for effective academic progress. Many teachers and pupils are the victims of laudable government policies yet lacking implementation. Supervision is not a new name as far as education is concerned. It is still surprise to see many primary schools lacking adequate care and supervision both internally and externally. Internal and external supervision if well practiced will help to eradicate the cankerworms eating Nigerian educational system.
