  • Francis Briggs

Abstract

It is the desire for the Federal Ministry of Education to improve the quality of teaching and learning in the Unity Schools. Supervision (internal and external) is an important component for quality education. This paper discussed the strategies for enhancing effective supervision, such as good leaders occupying principal position, effective communication and improved curriculum. It also stated the problem associated with effective supervision in achieving quality, which includes inadequate provision of infrastructure (buildings, learning and teaching materials), irregular training and re-training for staff and students, supervisors finding fault in the supervisee, partial or non-implementation of proffered solutions by the government. The paper equally highlighted the usefulness of supervision and made suggestions on how supervision could be improved to enhance quality education in a changing environment.
