Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Academic self-development of teachers is one way of obtaining the much needed human capital in the school system. However, in the process of undergoing such self-improvement programmes, some inhibiting elements are always experienced. The challenges are: inadequate finance, poor timing, inadequate facilities, strike actions in tertiary educational iinstitutions, lapses in study leave approval, lack of promotion, and poor information management. It is the recommendation of the paper for the government and school administrators to once more redouble their efforts towards ameliorating the present challaenges of academic self-development of staff in our schools so that both the society and the participants will stand to benefit in the following ways: enhanced teaching capability, good leadership skills, improved teaching techniques and classroom management, assumption of higher status, improvement in emoluments, and improvement in development.
