Assessing Teachers' Perception on the Role of Extrinsic Motivation on Their Performance in Private Basic Schools: A Case Study of Adentan Municipal Assembly in the Greater Accra Region of Gha

ABSTRACT 

The purpose of this study was to assess teachers‟ perception on the role of extrinsic motivation on their performance in private basic schools in the Adentan Municipal Assembly in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. The study was guided by three (3)objectives which were to identify the administrative factors that motivate teacher‟s performance in the Adentan Municipal Assembly, to identify students‟ factors that motivate teacher‟s performance in the Adentan Municipal Assembly and to find out the community factors that motivate teacher‟s performance in the Adentan Municipal Assembly. The study was descriptive survey which made use of sixty (60) respondents from six (6) schools in the Adentan Municipal Assembly and the researcher collected data using a questionnaire that was self-generated from literature in the area of teacher motivation. The researcher analysed the data by using descriptive statistics such as percentages and frequencies from the SPSS. The results of the study showed that administrative factors, student factors and community factors have a positive effect on the extrinsic motivation of teachers on the area of study. Thus, whiles administrative factors and student factors are quite controllable in nature due to the fact that they are manageable, the community factors may be concluded to be quite complicated and hard to handle. It was thus recommended that, school authorities use the findings of the study to draft training manuals on how to handle the relationship between the three factors as well as design educational programs for school authorities.
