Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of continuous training and
development of teachers in secondary schools' performance. Continuous training is the
whole range of activities through which teachers can extend their personal education,
develop their professional competence and improve their understanding of educational
principle and techniques. The study explored the role of this continuous training and
development.
A total of ninety six (96) teachers teaching in public secondary schools were
interviewed. This was about half of the total population of sciences and mathematics
teachers in secondary schools in the district hence produced a good representation of the
total population whose results were generalized in the entire country.
The methods which were used to obtain the data were questionnaires comprised
of closed-ended questions with minimal open-ended type of questions.
Data was analyzed using frequency tables and presented using bar graphs, pie
charts and line-graphs.
