EXPLORING FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE EFFECTIVE SUPERVISION IN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLS: THE CASE STUDY OF EJISU-JUABEN MUNICIPALITY IN THE ASHANTI REGION

ABSTRACT 

The survival of every educational institution largely depends on its effects to supervise activities in the school to ensure efficiency in administration. The study was motivated by the desire to explore factors that influence effective supervision in junior high schools and to identify strategies that could help to manage the challenges. It points out the fact that supervision was targeted at providing assistance to teachers and also meeting quality demand in education. The accessible population was head teachers, teachers and students of junior high schools in the Ejisu-Juaben Municipality in the Ashanti region. A sample of 100 was used using stratified sampling technique. A 22 item questionnaire was used in data collection. The items yielded a reliability coefficient of 0.81. Data analyzed were converted to percentages and were used to present the results obtained. The study found that the provision of supervision has raised issues that hinder its effectiveness in junior high schools. These among others included lack of cooperation from teachers, training and motivation of heads. It was recommended that encouraging teachers to solve minor issues could help to win their cooperation. The integration of training in the area of supervision into academic programs of colleges of education and universities could be of immense help. Ghana education service needs to expand its motivation base to include supervision in junior high schools.
