ABSTRACT
The study was aimed at unearthing the challenges facing Senior High School Administrators with particular reference to the schools in Komenda- Edina-Eguafo-Abrem (K.E.E.A.) municipality of Central Region of Ghana. It further sought to find out how the challenges are affecting the general progress of the schools and how the various key stakeholders are supporting the schools.
The views of 46 purposively sampled administrators were sought. The administrators here included; headmasters, assistant headmasters/mistresses, senior housemasters/mistresses, accountants and heads of department of programmes being run in the schools. The instrument used to collect the data was questionnaire.
The major findings indicate that the schools in question were under resourced in terms of physical facilities. This has resulted in poor teacher retention rate, students being indiscipline and consequently unsatisfactory academic performance.
Based on the above findings, it was recommended that the government and its immediate stakeholders like board of governors, school communities and teachers should expedite their actions towards the schools. Again, since the government alone cannot shoulder all the needs of the schools effectively and timely as expected, it was further recommended that other stakeholders like Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), cooperate bodies, donor agencies etc. should be robed in, in order to ease the burden on the government in general and the school administrators in particular.
