Abstract

School effectiveness is one of the critical factors determining the quality of education. However, in public secondary schools in Ogun State, Nigeria, school effectiveness remains low, as reflected in poor teacher performance, low teaching quality, and inefficient school operations. This study aims to analyze the role of perceived strategic planning in improving school effectiveness. The study employed a descriptive survey design with a quantitative approach. The population included 20,000 public secondary school teachers, with a sample of 400 teachers selected through a multi-stage random sampling method. Out of the selected sample, 360 respondents provided valid responses. The primary research instrument was a questionnaire developed by the researcher titled The Role of Strategic Planning in School Effectiveness in Public Secondary Schools Questionnaire (RSPSEPSSQ). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean scores and standard deviations. The findings indicate that the practice of strategic planning in public secondary schools remains low, with a mean score of 1.79 ± 1.04. Similarly, school effectiveness was recorded as low, with a mean score of 1.68 ± 1.29. However, respondents acknowledged that the implementation of strategic planning practices significantly contributed to improving various school aspects, such as teacher performance, teaching quality, administrative efficiency, and collaboration among teachers, students, and administrators to achieve common goals, with a mean score of 2.86 ± 0.94. Based on these findings, it is concluded that public secondary schools in Ogun State implement professional development programs for school principals and administrators to enhance effective strategic planning practices.

Abstract

Entrepreneurial programs in higher education play a vital role in equipping students with the skills, knowledge, and mindset necessary for success in today’s dynamic and competitive business environment. This study explores the key elements of successful entrepreneurial programs in Nigerian universities, highlighting their importance in fostering innovation, economic growth, and social change. It examines the challenges faced in the development of such programs, including curriculum limitations, inadequate resources, and a lack of experiential learning opportunities. Drawing on existing literature and theoretical frameworks, such as Experiential Learning Theory, this paper underscores the need for a comprehensive, hands-on approach to entrepreneurship education that emphasizes creativity, risk-taking, and problem-solving. It further recommends strategies for enhancing entrepreneurial programs, such as curriculum innovation, stronger mentorship networks, improved access to resources, and fostering a culture of resilience. The findings suggest that well-structured entrepreneurial programs can significantly contribute to job creation, economic development, and the cultivation of socially responsible entrepreneurs. By addressing the structural challenges and incorporating best practices from successful global programs, Nigerian universities can create an entrepreneurial ecosystem that empowers students to launch successful businesses and drive sustainable economic progress.
