It intended to establish the effect of supervision on the performance of primary teachers in Nakaseke Sub-county, Nakaseke District to enhance quality education. The researcher used questionnaires and interviews schedules as the instruments to collect the data. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the information collected during the study. The results of the study revealed that generally teachers rated supervisors’ visits to schools at an average rate. Teachers make an effort to prepare lesson plans and schemes of work.
