INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
This project attempts to examine the problems of classroom control and
management in Ujevwu primary school in Udu Local Government Area of Delta
State.
The idea behind description in schools is not put across a point of view about
the proper definition of school discipline but to bring together contrasting
opinion and attitude so that the reader can be giving the background on which
to base his own conclusion.
Barry {1973} regards discipline as one of the most controversial topic in
education. It is an area of interest that closely involves many parents and
teachers who feel the need to refine school values to take account of changes
in the social environment but dare not always sure of the best way to go about
the job.
Neils {1990} has defined the discipline as near total freedom to youngsters to
find their own philosophy of behaviour and relief or would it be wiser to seek
to pressure some or all of the traditional standards as an essential bulwark
against the risk of social disruption. The banjo regarded disciplines as the
first law in a good school for without it school life cannot fulfill its
purpose.
Adeyemo {1991} defined discipline as to control of the children by the teacher
as applicable to a teacher of school life. Broadly speaking, it is the
training, which produces self-control, orderliness, obedience and power of
co-operation in the children.
Farret also regarded discipline as measure by the extent to which children
exercise self-control and willing apply themselves to the tasks appointed by
their teachers.
Derek {1971} has defined discipline as the highest order of control and imposed
by the pupils, rather imposed from outside by the teacher.
Homwens and Popular O. {2005} regarded discipline is usually perceived as the
preservation of order and maintenance of control.
These are traditionally the outcomes of control and management techniques,
however, we feel that this view of discipline is far too simplistic. Teacher
must make on the spots, slit-second decisions and must made spontaneously when
management techniques to solve problems that arise in the classroom. Classroom
management principles must be understood and developed in light of appropriate
and instructional outcomes as determined by teacher-student situation factors.
The attitudes that students developed in formal classroom situations are
influenced by the classroom management skills of teacher.
In my own opinion and all the authors who had defined disciplines in one way or
the other, I therefore add that discipline its self controlled and willing to
accept order.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Ignorance control of the student’s is associated with the problems of primary
schools. The life of students are shattered with the passing of incorrect
information among themselves, they get misled by others.
Today, the problems resulting from the lack of discipline to our youth are
numerous. As a result of indiscipline, several unwanted behaviour are find
among the students, such as disobedient, disorderliness, dishonour and lack of
self-control are find in them.
All these have led to inability to concentrate, poor school performance
deterioration of mental health of students, high rate of school drop outs,
increase in illiteracy and over population.
This study is also carried at finding how indiscipline influence students. It
educates the students on how to produce unwanted behaviour among themselves.
And to make a case for the need to teach discipline in primary school beginning
from primary one to six. To seek or to find out the various ways in which
discipline can be taught, who to teach it, and the goals to be achieved from
teaching discipline.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The purpose of this study is therefore to sample on the issue of the
introduction of discipline in order to also attract the attention of both the
educationist and non-educationist to the effect of discipline. The impact of
discipline on our primary schools and the academic performance of the students
by the academic staffs and the primary schools in enhancing socio-economic and

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The importance of this study is to bring to the knowledge of the public the
possible solutions to this problem of classroom control and management and the
effect of discipline in primary school system.
Discipline is important, for it involves all the subjects in the school time
table and also include the students, teachers and parents, communities,
education officers, policy makers in one way or the other.
To achieve this, the life of school must be based on mutual respect for all its
members and understanding of the difficulties and problems they face. The
principal and teachers have responsibility for the whole area of working
relations within the school community, the principals or head of unit’s doom
must never be closed to any students parents, staff, members, education
officers and policy makers and he must also be prepared to listen at any time
to apparently trivial details which are of course of vital importance to the
complainants.
