dc.description.abstract |
The purpose of this study was to project secondary schools enrolment in the
year 2015 and the number of teachers who would be required to teach the
projected students. The study was based in Nandi North and South Districts in
the Rift Valley Province, Kenya. The study was based on descriptive survey.
Purposive sampling technique was employed in choosing the sample size for the
study. The findings indicated that the number of students expected to be in
secondary schools in the year 2015 in Nandi North and South Districts would be
32,545 and the number of teachers who would be required to teach them, based
on the student-teacher ratio of 25:1, would be 1,302. In light of the findings of
this study, it is recommended that the Teachers Service Commission should
provide a solution to the anticipated shortage of 125 teachers by employing
more teachers and deploying them to schools. |
