Abstract
This study is a survey of principals’ awareness of the policy directives on the implementation and structure of the new Senior Secondary Education Curriculum. A total of hundred (100)school principals from hundred public and private senior secondary schools in the six Area Councils in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja were used for the study. Principals’Awareness of the Structure and Mode of Implementation of the SSEC Questionnaire with reliability coefficient of 0.73 using Cronbach Alpha was used for data collection. Using weighted mean scores for data analysis, it was revealed that some principals lack awareness of the policy directives on the implementation and structure of the new Senior Secondary Education Curriculum. The findings of the study revealed that there is no significant difference in urban and rural school principals’ awareness of the policy directives on the implementation and structure of the new Senior Secondary Education Curriculum; it was therefore recommended among others that The Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC) should organize nationwide sensitization for principals who are still in the dark with regard to the contents, policy directives on the structure and mode of implementation of the SSEC and information about the new SSEC. This should be in the form of tapes, books and websites of NERDC for principals, teachers, students, parents and other stakeholders to access.
