ABSTRACT
The study was on supervision of instruction in Junior Secondary Schools in
the Tema municipality, in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. The purpose of the
study was to find out the state of supervision of instruction in the Tema
municipality, the type of supervision emphasized and which type teachers
preferred. It was also to find out whether teachers were satisfied with the level of
supervision in the municipality and the problems they encountered in their work
and whether the supervision improved the performance of pupils in the Basic
Education Certificate Examination. The data was collected through questionnaire
and interview guide. The hat-trick random sampling selection method was used
for the schools from the five circuits chosen. The statistical method used in the
analysis was simple percentages. Total sample size was 177. The descriptive
survey design was used for the study. The study involved headteachers, teachers,
pupils, circuit supervisors, the district director, and the head of inspectorate.
Findings made were that with the exception of the teachers who preferred internal
supervision to external supervision, all other respondents considered both internal
and external supervision as equally important. Major problems faced by external
supervisors, was the lack of transportation and logistics. It is recommended that
these are to be provided by the municipal director of education for effective
supervision. Workshops also should be organized for teachers to sensitise them on
the complementary roles played by external supervision.
