Teachers' Perception of Teaching Family Life Education in Public Secondary Schools in Anambra State

Abstract

this study determined teachers' perception of teaching family life education in secondary schools in Anambra State. The study was anchored on Social Learning Theory SLT . A descriptive survey design was used for this study. The population of the study comprised 2700 teachers drawn from the state public secondary schools in the six education zones in Anambra State. The sample size was 810 teachers drawn from 257 schools in the selected zones. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Face and content validity techniques were used in validating the instrument while Cronbach Alpha method was used in reliability test and a coefficient of 0.85 was obtained. T test was used to test the hypotheses formulated at 0.05 level of significance. The result indicated that the difference in male and female teachers' perception regarding teaching family life education was significant and that the difference in the mean rating of male and female teachers' perception of the contents of the curriculum on family life education was also significant. It was therefore concluded that teachers in secondary schools in Anambra State perceive that family life education be taught. But that the teaching of family life education in secondary schools in Anambra state was hampered by various factors, including insecurity of parents, lack of training, religion and culture. Sequel to this, it was recommended that family life education should be taught from Junior Secondary School to Senior Secondary and the best ways of encouraging interest and commitment to this subject need to be devised.
