The Implementation of Decentralization Policy in the Education Sector by Municipal Councils and the Management of Nursery and Primary Schools The Case of Government Nursery and Primary Schools

Abstract

The examination of the relationship between efficient management of nursery and Primary schools and decentralization in relation to the implementation of decentralization policies in Cameroon by councils is what this study intended to ascertain. The study employed purposive sampling technique, to select the 50 head teacher respondents and 3municipal Mayors. Data which was collected by the use of a questionnaire and interviews as instruments of data collection were subjected to descriptive and inferential statistical analysis using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences SPSS . The resultant findings did indicate that, there is a significant relationship between the council’s implementation of decentralization policies specifically the building, equipping and maintenance of classrooms by councils and the efficient management of nursery and primary schools, albeit being that the relationship that exists was rated weak. A resulting recommendation made was that the central level relinquishes sufficient resources for local councils, ensuring accountability and transparency in operations and instituting follow up mechanisms through supervision to ensure that local council authorities are effectively implementing the decentralization process as expected.
