Relationship between Teachers' Participation and Management Outcomes in Primary Schools in Pader District, Uganda

Abstract

Management outcomes have, over the years, gained significant attention from scholars. This study examined the relationship between teachers' participation and management outcomes in primary schools in Pader District, Uganda. The investigation examined teachers' participation in Pader District primary schools, management outcomes and the relationship between participation and management outcomes. With 301 respondents, the research used questionnaire surveys, interview guides, and observation checklists. Data was analysed using SPSS version 25, descriptive statistics, Chi-Square test, Spearman's rank Correlation Coefficient, and linear regression analysis to determine the relationship between teachers' participation and management outcomes. The study found a moderate correlation between teachers' participation and management outcomes, with a 0.01% level of significance. This aligns with previous research indicating that teachers' involvement in water hygiene, sanitation, equipment procurement, guidance, inventory control, budget preparation, and classroom maintenance positively impacts management outcomes
