ABSTRACT
This study aimed at investigating pre-school teachers’ perception of the challenges facing preschool education in Shama District. Descriptive survey design was used in the study. Questionnaire was used to collect data from 200 preschool teachers teaching in Pre-schools in Shama District. Frequency counts, percentages, means as well as analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to analyze the data. The results revealed that most pre-schools within the Shama District do not apply good teaching strategies and also, they do not have adequate number of picture cards, number cards, drawing cards, sand tray, picture books, slates and alphabetic cards. The hypothesis tested proved that there was no statistically significant difference in the perception of preschoolteachers’ on the challenges facing pre-school education based on gender and age. It is recommended that GES organise inservice training for pre-school teachers to upgrade their pedagogical skills. Also, government, through the Ministry of Education, provides pre-schools with the necessary equipments, furniture, infrastructure, facilities, and teaching aids to aid their work. Again, training opportunities should be made available for pre-school teachers to up-grade their skills on how to improvise teaching aids and care for pr-scholars.
