Abstract

The research work is carried out on an assessment of senior secondary schools mathematics curriculum implementation in Federal Capital Territory Abuja. Research design used for this study was descriptive survey. Population of the study comprised of 917 mathematics teachers which include supervisors from inspectorate, out of which 270 mathematics teachers and 30 inspectors totalling 300 respondents were randomly selected for this study. Data collected were analyzed using simple frequency and percentage for demographic information of the respondents and chi-square statistics for research hypotheses which were tested at 0.05 level of significance. From the findings, suggested methodologies in mathematics curriculum were not appropriate for the effective implementation of mathematics curriculum; most of the suggested instructional materials were not suitable for mathematics contents; teachers’ qualification had significant effect on implementation of mathematics curriculum and over-crowded classroom also had effect on implementation of mathematics curriculum in senior secondary schools Abuja, Nigeria. Based on the findings, it was recommended, among others, that schools should have all the means necessary for a curriculum to be implemented the way it is originally intended. Hence, teachers should be supported with rich and satisfactory conditions in classrooms.
