MANAGERIAL APPROACHES OF TEACHERS TOWARDS PUPILS’ AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION PRACTICAL LESSONS: A CASE STUDY OF BASIC SCHOOLS IN OFFINSO MUNICIPALITY

ABSTRACT 

The study examined the managerial approaches towards the aggressive behaviour exhibited by the Basic School Pupils of the Offinso municipality. The respondents were sampled using stratified and purposive sampling techniques. They were chosen from four basic schools (B.S.3 through B.S.5) and was made of twenty (20) boys, twelve (12) girls, and twenty one (21) teachers.  Anecdotal Record technique and questionnaires were the instruments used to gather data on the various respondents which included, (21) Teachers, and thirty two (32) pupils were selected over a period of four weeks. Correlation between frequencies of aggressive behaviours and teachers’ approaches with regards to managing them were determined. The research revealed that there were some Aggressive Behaviours that were serious and kept occurring in the physical education practical lessons. Evidence from the data suggested that a total of seven (7) aggressive behaviours were exhibited by pupils. Noise making, Name calling and teasing were recorded as the most frequently occurring aggressive behaviour, using punishment and redirection of children’s attention were the most approaches used by teachers. It is recommended that teachers should enforce the Ghana Education Service code of discipline for Basic Schools but in some situations, they have to be allowed to use their own discretions to decide the type of punishments they mete out to the pupils.
