The study entitled Assessment of Contributions of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in the Management of Public Secondary Schools in Zamfara State, Nigeria has seven objectives, some of which are to assess the roles of the NGOs in the supervision, funding, and staff development in public secondary schools in Zamfara state. Seven research questions were asked in accordance with the objectives and seven null hypotheses were postulated. Some of the hypotheses stated that there is no significant difference in the opinions of principals, teachers, and officials of School-Based Management Committees in the involvement of Non-Governmental organizations in the supervision, and there is no significant difference in the opinions of respondents on the contributions of Non-Governmental Organizations in funding public secondary schools in Zamfara State. The target population for the study comprised 154 principals, 2,728 teachers, and 770 officials of School-Based Management Committees (SBMCs) totalling 3,652 from 154 public senior secondary schools in Zamfara State. The sample size was 15 principals, 262 teachers, and 74 officials of SBMC totalling 351.
