Abstract
This study investigated the prediction between
principals’ operational planning and teachers’ job performance in public senior
secondary schools in Rivers State. The study was guided by two research
questions and two hypotheses. This study adopted correlational research design.
The population of this study consisted of 888 principals and vice principals in
296 public senior secondary schools in Rivers State. The sample for the study
was 399 respondents. The instruments for the study were two self-developed
questionnaire titled “Principals’ Operational Planning Questionnaire (POPQ)’
and ‘Teachers’ Job Performance Scale (TPS). The instruments were validated, and
the reliability coefficient values of .82 and .88 were obtained using the
Cronbach Alpha Method. The research questions were answered using the Simple
Regression statistics while the hypotheses were tested using T-test with Simple
Regression at 0.05 level of significance. Findings of the study revealed that enrolment
planning and timetabling significantly predicts teachers’ job performance in
public senior secondary schools in Rivers State. The study recommended that Government
should ensure that educational policies are properly adhered to by school
administrators and education stakeholders. Also, facilities should be put in
place for proper students’ enrolment and School administrators should review
timetable loads so that adequate and manageable loads would be carried by
teachers in secondary schools. By so doing, it improves teachers’ job
performance.
