ABSTRACT The purpose of this dissertation was to examine the effect motivation has on staff retention in public second cycle institutions in Cape Coast Metropolis. The study adopted the explanatory research design using quantitative approach for the data collection and analysis. The study moreover, employed the quota and simple random sampling procedures to select 205 respondents for the study. The statistical tools employed were statistical product and service solutions (SPSS), the chi-square test of association and the logistic regression. Out of the 205 questionnaires, 181 were returned representing 88.2% response rate. The results of the study revealed that, payment of monthly salary is the most agreed practice in the motivation packages of GES while training opportunities for teachers and allowance for purchasing of teaching materials were the least practices in the motivation packages of GES. Moreover the study showed that Politics and other Private businesses were the alternative competitive occupation that are likely to entice employees of GES. The study addition revealed from the logistic regression that at 10% significance level, motivation is positively related to staff retention. To this end the study therefore recommends that GES considers a more comprehensive and competitive motivation package aside the monthly pay or salaries to help retain their best and loyal employees. The researcher suggests that subsequent studies should include private second cycle institutions
