Abstract :
The purpose of this study is to analyse the
environmental supportive administrative services
provided by principals for effective classroom
management in public and private secondary schools in
Anambra State. One research question and one null
hypothesis guided the study. It was a descriptive study
conducted in Anambra state covering the six education
zones in the state. A total of 15,990 respondents
constituted the population for the study. A sample of
852 teachers was used. The instrument for data
collection is a structured questionnaire developed by the
researchers. The questionnaire was duly validated by
experts who are lecturers. The reliability of the
instrument was also established. Cronbach alpha
statistic was used to determine reliability which gave the
reliability coefficient of 0.81. The instrument was
administered on the respondents directly by the
researchers who assisted by six research assistants. Out
of 852 copies of the questionnaire distributed, 850 copies
were correctly filled, retrieved and subjected to
statistical analysis. The data were analyzed using mean
ratings to answer the research question and t- test to
test the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. Findings
indicated that, in public secondary schools, adequate
workshops are not provided as part of environmental
supportive administrative services for effective
classroom management. Accordingly, it was among
others recommended that government should organize
workshops for secondary schools on environmental
supportive administrative services.
