Abstract:
This study focused on examining the relationship between head teachers' supervision and teachers' performance in Universal Primary Education schools in Bubulo Constituency, Manafwa district, Uganda. The objectives that guided the study were: to determine the relationship between head teachers' supervision and teachers' preparation of pedagogical documents; to determine the relationship between head teachers' supervision and teachers' classroom instruction and management; as well as to determine the relationship between head teachers' supervision and teachers' assessment and evaluation of learners. The study was basically cross-sectional survey which involved quantitative and qualitative approaches. The study was carried out in all 30 UPE Primary Schools in Manafwa District with a parent population of one hundred thirty (130) teachers and thirty head teachers (30). Out of these, a sample of 113 teachers and 30 head teachers was taken, using simple random and purposive sampling. Teachers filled questionnaires on their performance, while the headteachers and a few teachers were interviewed orally. For the three research objectives, the data collected were analyzed using inferential statistics (Pearson correlation co-efficient techniques). The study found a significant relationship between: head teachers' supervision and teachers' preparation of pedagogical documents (r=0. 791**, sig. 0.000); head teacher's supervision and teachers' classroom instruction and management (r=0. 770**, sig.0.000) and head teachers' supervision and teachers' assessment and evaluation of learners (r=0.701**, sig. 0.000). The study concluded that head teachers' supervision had a significant relationship with teachers' performance in UPE schools in Bubulo Constituency, Manafwa district. It was recommended that management, government and other stakeholders should be involved in the monitoring of teachers' performance in UPE schools of Bubulo Constituency, Manafwa district; head teachers should carry out regular supervision to promote quality control measures that motivate the teachers to improve on their performance; teachers should realize that the use of instructional materials during lessons simplifies content and brings distant events into classroom situations for easy understanding.HEAD TEACHERS' SUPERVISION AND TEACHERS' PERFORMANCE IN UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION SCHOOLS IN BUBULO CONSTITUENCY, MANAFWA DISTRICT, UGANDABYWAKUTILE ANTHONY GODWIN 1164-07096-09300A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, OPEN DISTANCE AND E-LEARNING IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE AWARD OF A DEGREE OF MASTEROF EDUCATION IN EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT OF KAMPALA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY, UGANDANOVEMBER, 2019DECLARATIONI WAKUTILE ANTHONY GODWIN declare that this dissertation is my original work and has not been presented for a Degree or any other academic award in any university or institution of learning.SIGNATURE...........................................
