AN
ASSESSMENT OF TEACHERS MOTIVATION AND ATTITUDE TO WORK AMONG SECONDARY SCHOOL
TEACHERS
CHAPTER ONE
1.0
INTRODUCTION
1.1
BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Teachers are
very important in the developing the future of student and the academic sector
in Nigeria. The teaching profession is one of the least respected professions
in Nigeria today as it is the case in most developing countries of the world.
Teachers from all ramifications are the builder of a nation hence they educate the
youth that will later sustain the growth or the nation. This important role
which the teachers play is not adequately compensated. If not for recently when
the federal government had introduced some fringe benefits or remunerations
such as the new salary structure called “elongated salary”, housing and
transport, utility. Rent and leave allowances for all workers in the country,
teachers would have remained very poor. These remunerations are added
incentives to motivate and encourage teachers to put in their best for a better
attitude to work, which will lead to high productivity and efficiency.
Unfortunately, these remunerations arc not so regularly paid to teachers as
their counterparts in other employments. This usually leads to incessant
strikes in the school system. According to Mbipom (2000:115), both staff and
students have lost much time due to strikes for better conditions of service.
Accordingly, as long as the hydra headed examination malpractice is around
nobody seems to mind. The resultant effects arc found in the half-baked and
ill-equipped product turn out from the school system annually.
On the other
hand many teachers do not accept best attitude to work to enable them.
Teachers
have little or no interest in their jobs and are not dedicated to their work
anymore. This deteriorating trend in all work of human life is observed more in
urban areas where the degree of sophistication seems to dedicate the evil pace.
Shagari
(2002) observed that the attitude of Nigeria to work is the worst in the world
and that if only every Nigerian is prepared to do an honest day’s work for an
honest day’s pay, Nigeria would achieve wonders in every sphere of human
endeavour.
Teaching
which everybody recognizes as a noble profession since ages, has been the talk
of the town, the average man in the street presently laments over apparent fall
in standard of education in the our society which they usually attribute to the
teachers attitude to work; because to poor attitude to work by teachers the
standard of education is falling daily.
1.2
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Teachers are
essential for developing the future of students. Achievement level of students
is directly related with the effectiveness of teachers. But a main problem
exists in the Public schools in Nigeria, due to which performance of students
is declining. A large number of teachers are incoming and leaving in the Public
schools. Due to this reason, teaching has become a revolving door occupation.
Moreover, a large number of teachers are switching to other non-teaching jobs.
Due to this, shortage of competent teachers is happening. Schools are
fulfilling these positions with ineffective teachers. This turnover of
competent teachers and fulfilling of these vacant positions with inefficient
teachers decrease the standard of instruction & due to low quality of
instruction, student’s performance is declined. Excessive teacher’s turnover
has a deep impact on the achievement level of students. This excessive turnover
is capturing the attention of education research and development. The main goal
of educationalists is to know about the reasons of excessive teacher’s
turnover. This problem is not only prevailing in Yobe State but also the same
situation is prevailing in the other cities of Pakistan as well as in other
countries. It is to this regard that the research desires to carry out an
assessment of teachers’ motivation and attitude to work among secondary school
teachers in Yobe State
