ABSTRACT
The study examines the approach used by teachers of Core English
language to teach the core English language curriculum in Bompeh Senior High
School, in the Western Region of Ghana. Specifically, the study focused on the
academic qualifications teachers of the Core English language curriculum
possessed, how topics were arranged in the syllabus, the method used by these
teachers to teach, the teaching and learning materials they used during the
teaching and learning process. A case study which employed both the quantitative
and qualitative methods, enabled cross-validation of the data and ensured
consistency and authentication. The population was made up of one head teacher,
one circuit supervisor, eight teachers (six females and two males) and 135
student-participants who were randomly selected. Data was collected through
documentation, questionnaires, interviews and observation of classroom lessons.
The outcome of the study revealed that majority of teachers were degree
holders of English language. The results also revealed that the most prominent
method for teaching English language was the lecture method, which was
sometimes combined with demonstrations. The study concluded that the teachers
have the skills, knowledge and competencies required to support the
implementation of the core English Language curriculum. However, on-going inservice
training should be given to teachers in curriculum implementation so that
they would be able to implement the curriculum effectively to reflect on ideas
expressed in the developed curriculum.
