ABSTRACT 

This study was conducted to identify and examine the challenges affecting effective teaching and learning in the Hospitality and Catering Management (HCM) department of the Bolgatanga Technical Institute (BOTECH). The research design adopted for the study was the descriptive survey design. The population of the study involved second year students, teachers and non-teaching staff of the entire Hospitality and Catering Management department. The sample technique chosen for the study was the purposive random sampling. The sample size was made up of 40 second year students, 15 departmental teachers and 5 administrative staff adding up to the total of 60 participants. The main instruments used for the data collection were questionnaire, interview and observation. Items used to analyze data were tables and figures. The study revealed that, inadequate TLMS, inadequate facilities and lack of properly equipped practical facilities, poor supervision, political interference were some of the many challenges affecting effective teaching and learning in the HCM department of the Bolgatanga Technical Institute. However, some few recommendations were made by the researcher to the HCM department, the school as well as the government to ensure effective teaching in the school especially the HCM department which includes but not limited to only TLMs available to teachers for use during lessons. Teachers should also do their very best to make available TLMs in the school for teaching their lessons to enhance students understanding of lessons that will eventually improve effective teaching and learning. Again, the school administration should be devoid of all political interference.
