The assessment of the causes of student drop out in the college was done using
three methods: namely: the use of questionnaire, official record and personal

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
The colleges of education are designed not only to impact broad based knowledge
to their students but also to groom and impact in them the abilities to impact
knowledge to others.
In another word, the colleges are designed as teaching and preparatory
institutions to empower future teachers with sound and productive knowledge in
line with the dynamic and systematic growth f the society.
Well-groomed grandaunts of these colleges go into schools to produce
knowledgeable pupils right from the primary to the secondary school level of
the education system in the country for our tertiary institutions.
Thus, these colleges have become the primary institution on which our
universities and research institution can develop and flourish.
This is why the increasing numbers of students’ dropout in those colleges have
become cause for serious concern to government and well meaning individuals in
the society.
SCOPE
OF THE STUDY
This study is limited to college of education, Ekiadolor (in Ovia North East
Local Government Area of Edo State). It is believed that the situation in this
college is applicable to other colleges of Education in the country.
