There is no significant difference in the qualification of teachers available for the implementation of Arabic Language Curriculum for achieving speech proficiency among Junior Secondary School Students in Kaduna State. It was concluded that the level of implementation of Arabic Language Curriculum was significantly low in speech proficiency among Junior Secondary School Students in Kaduna State. Most of the teachers are not qualified to implement the Arabic Language Curriculum for achieving the speech proficiency. It was also concluded that most of the Arabic teachers are used to chalk and talk method in teaching Arabic Language Curriculum which impedes achieving speech proficiency among the targeted Students. Based on the findings and conclusion from this study, recommendations were made among others that Arabic Language Curriculum should be simplified to provide more skills that are geared towards achieving speech proficiency among Junior Secondary School Students.
