dc.description.abstractThe study was on Perceptions of Stakeholders on the Role Performances of Principals in the Administration of Junior Secondary Schools in North-West Geo-Political Zone, Nigeria. The study formulated ten Hypotheses and ten research questions in line with the objectives of the study. Descriptive survey design was adopted and used to cover all the seven states that constituted North-West Geo-Political Zone. A total population of 25,078 made up of 1,080 inspectors, 1,683 principals and 22,315 teachers was used in the study. A sample of 291 inspectors, 322 principals and 378 teachers was arrived at using Research Advisors (2006) Sampling Table. Stratified sampling technique was used to select schools and respondents. After the distribution of the questionnaire, a total of 939 comprising 329 teachers, 320 principals and 290 inspectors was retrieved. A close ended questionnaire (five point Likert Scale) was used as instrument for data collection. The instrument was validated by my supervisors and other experts. A pilot study was conducted to determine the reliability coefficient of the instrument. Split half method was used to analyse the results revealing 0.86 reliability coefficient. The analysis showed high positive reliability of the instrument making it useful and reliable for the conduct of the research. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), using 0.05 level of significance. Scheffe’s Multiple Comparison was employed and used to establish incidences of extent of differences in opinions. The analysis indicated that two hypotheses on principals’ roles on supervisory function and staff and students’ welfare were retained, while eight hypotheses were rejected. The findings revealed that role performances were not achieved because principals lacked experience in decision making strategies, inability to involve stakeholders in securing and managing school resources, barring students in participating in extra-curricular activities, among others. The study concluded, based on the data analyzed and the major findings, that role performances of principals in junior secondary schools in North-West Geo-political zone were not attained to enhance schools’ administration. Recommendations include encouraging high level of community involvement in secondary school administration in order to sustain cordial relationship between the school and community and developing and promoting extra-curricular activities in secondary schools. The implementation of the recommendations could result into better Junior Secondary School administration leading to better quality delivery in Nigeria. The study further suggested among others for a research on the perception of stakeholders on the performance of principals in the administration of senior secondary schools in North-West Zoneen_US
