| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the turnover of teachers in relation to students ’ academic achievements in private secondary schools in Abeokuta Metropolis of Ogun state, Nigeria. Three hypotheses guided the study. A descriptive survey research design was employed for the study. The sample comprises 300 participants, made up of 100 teachers and 200 students selected from ten government-approved private secondary.... schools using simple and stratified random sampling techniques. A self-constructed questionnaire and achievement tests drawn in the general subjects of English language, mathematics and computer studies (ICT) were used for data collection. Data obtained were analysed using Chi-square, T-test and Pearson Product Moment Correlation techniques. The results of the analyses indicated that the turnover of teachers had significant influence on students * learning achievements. It was also found that the intention to leave teaching was higher among non-professional teachers than among professionally trained teachers. Conditions of service were also found to contribute to teachers ’ turnover. Based on the findings of the study, it is recommended that only those who are professionally qualified should be recruited as teachers, while there should also be some improvement in the conditions of service for teachers at every level and sector. | en_US |
