Journal Title: Asian Journal of Management Sciences and Education - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was undertaken to examine management strategies and job performance of teachers in Akwa Ibom South Senatorial District. Three research questions and three null hypotheses were formulated to achieve the objective of the study. The population for this study was 1112, which consisted of 908 teachers and 204 school managers. Ex-post facto design was used to conduct the study, while the stratified random sampling technique was used to select the sample size of 745 respondents for the study. Two researcher-developed instruments; “Management Strategies Questionnaire (MSQ)” and “Teachers’ Job Performance Questionnaire (TJPQ)” were used for data collection and were validated by two experts in test and measurement. Also, Cronbach analytical method was used to ascertain the reliability of the instruments with reliability co-efficient of .79 and .80 for MSQ and TJPQ respectively. Simple regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that supervision, in-service training and compensation significantly relate to teachers’ job performance. The conclusion was that, if teachers must perform maximally school managers must adopt suitable personnel management strategies on them. It was therefore recommended that adequate supervision, compensation and in-service training programmes should be used on teachers with a well-articulated policy to improve their productivity.
