dc.description.abstractThis study was designed to investigate the problems of healthful school living in primary schools in Cross River State. A total of 37 primary schools from six local government areas out of the 18 local government areas in the state were sampled. A set of validated questionnaires with six sub-sections was administered on the respondents. The questionnaires were personally administered and collected. Three hundred (300) questionnaires were administered. Out of this number two hundred and twenty (220) were returned. This represents 73 percent response. The various responses were tallied, and put into frequency distribution tables and converted to percentages for easy descriptive analysis. t-test related samples and Spearman rank order of correlation co-efficient and K-sample chisquare were used to test the hypotheses postulated. The findings of the study are as follows: - Most of the sanitary facilities are not in place and some of the schools even operate without toilets. - Some of the schools operate without adequate accommodation, facilities for drinking water, toilet, and refuse disposal. - Emotional health of the pupils is not regarded as high as their physical health by the teachers. 8 - The school day programme was successfully carried out because teachers were adequately exposed to the background necessary for proper class management which incorporate control of pupils in the class and proper teaching method, as indicated in the demographic data of the respondents. Based on the above findings, recommendations that would solve the problems or constraints identified were made.en_US
