Abstract
The subject matter of the study is concerned with the
structure and Functions of the State Primary Education Boards
(SPEBs) in Nigeria with Kaduna State Primary Education Board
(KSPEB) as a case study. The Kaduna state Primary Education Board
was established undei Edict No. 18 of 1993 and charged with the
management of primary schools in Kaduna state. The machinery for
effective management of this industry must be properly put in place
to achieve the desired goals. This ts because, proper structural
arrangement in an organisation can be used to identify and describe
the role performance needed for the attainment of Its goals.
The study adopted the structural Functional model as its
theoretical Framework and the hybrid creature model of the public
enterprise school. This is because of the cornplementary role ot
structure and function and the importance of using a board to
achieve the desired goal of revitalising the primary education
industry.
The analysis of data were done using Frequencies and simple
percentages. The major points analysed i n c l u d e d the need for an
organisation to have a well defined structure, the importance of a
board, the relationship existing between structure and function and
the need to revitalise the primary school industry.
The study discovered that, because of its proper structural
setting. the board is succeeding in its functions. However, few
problems are plaguing the board viz:
a) Lack of transportation facilities; and
b) Instability of government po]icies
Some recommendations include; maintenance of the present structure,
vehicles should be provided to affected areas to ensure proper
control and supervision- Government policies and agencies should
be made stable.
