1.1 Background of the study

It is accepted that the education of a child is a responsibilities of the home and the school setting. It is because of the above assertion that led to the introduction of the Parent Teachers Association (P.T.A.) in the restate of secondary school setting which dates back to the former east central take over of schools in 1970. before then, there were such events as parents day or open day on government and voluntary agencies. The administrative roles of parents teachers association in the moral development of secondary school students was a renewed conception of the east central state public education edict 1970, and it stated that the commission for schools shall ensure that administrative roles of parents teachers association is sponsored in every school to provides intimate supervision of the performance of the school, from the above assertion it can be seen that the government and public recognized the effectiveness and usefulness of the administrative roles of parent teachers association in the moral development of secondary school students since they engage or contributes in the supervision of the academic and attitudinal performance of the students. According to Ngoka 2008 administrative roles of parent teachers association designed to improve instructional programmes in secondary school students, moral and character development.

Oladelo 2006 define parent teachers association as an organization, which attempts to bring parent and teachers together in the interest of the moral and character development of secondary school student. It seeks to move the false and out dated picture which parents and teachers have one another then making it possible for them to work as partness and fruitful collaborators in the moral development of the secondary school student. In this regard, the home, the school and the society are now recognized and constituting the three corners of a triangle that supports our educational system in moral development of our secondary school students- ideally parents teacher association is a forum for nourishing parents interest in curriculum discipline the secondary school students social activities and the qualities of class-room teaching. It is a voluntary and welfare administrative roles of parent / guardians of secondary school students and the teachers of the school. (Ngbodile 2007) it is against the fore going that has led to the formation of this organized body as provided for by the public education edict of many states in section 26(4) of 1974. According to the edict, the administrative role of parent teachers association executive commetees is made up of officers elected by the association these officers consists elected chairman from amongst the parents, the secretary, who should be the principle of the secondary school students or his nominees from the teachers, and elected treasurers from the parents, the financial secretary, could be the Bursar of the secondary school and five other elected members. The secondary school through the (P.T.A.) are expected to mobilize financial support and moral development of the secondary school students. The school as an organization is a social convention designed to serve the moral development need of the secondary school students and the individual that made it up. In the words of Joues (2009) “No school has ever operated in a social vacuum apart from the society it serves. Therefore, the importance attached to administrative roles of parents teachers association involvement in the moral development of secondary school students should be regarded as one of the cardinal responsibilies of any school administrator. More importantly Ocho (2005) opined that involvement of parents teachers association in secondary school students have been officially recognized and entreached”. He went further to say that they play considerable roles in the administration of secondary school students and are charged with the responsibilities of formaulating major policies guiding the students moral and character development, without which the school may not function effectively Ngola (2008) summed up the administrative role of parents teachers association as that of development of vision character and competence in our secondary school students. The parents teachers association should include developing moral and responsibilities and sound ethical and moral behaviour, capacity for discipline, moral and ethical sense of the valves, goals and processes of a free society and standard of personal character and ideas in secondary school student.

Uwaka E. (2008) Summed up the importance of parents teachers association in the provision of fund and equipment, when he said that “the parents teachers association can allocate free and for school buildings, play ground and farm. They can provide materials needed by the school raise appreciate fund for both laboratory and library equipment, contribute ideas, opinions to enable the school run more effectively, provide voluntary teachers, influence the government in posting qualified teachers to the school, out right building of class-room blocks, renovation of existing school building to the secondary school student.
