Planning process in Nigeria, focusing on the Planning,
Research, and Statistics Department of the Federal Ministry
of Education. The instrument for data collection was the
questionnaire and the study tested nine hypotheses. The
major findings were:
that there was crucial problem of lack ,of adequate and
accurate statistical data, which were vital for planning
purposes
there was a gap between planners and policy makers in
the formulation and implementation of plans;
there were many socio-political and economic constraints
affecting educational planning;
there was no in-built evaluation system in the plans
to assist in detecting deviations in plans; and
there was low level of public enlightenment and less
involvement of relevant interest and pressure groups.
On the basis of these findings, recommendations were made
to improve the situation.
