The participants included: 10 head teachers sampled purposively randomly, 50 teachers and 40 members of Board of Governors, Parents, Teachers Association randomly selected and 20 student leaders picked purposively randomly. A total of 120 persons participated in the study. The Head teachers were served with a key informants' questionnaire guide which yielded quantitative data.
