Abstract

The study investigated the topic: enrolment planning and class allocation practices utilized by principals as correlates of students’ population management in public secondary schools in Delta State. The study adopted a correlation research design. Two research questions were answered while two hypotheses were tested at 0.05 alpha level. The population of the study comprised 485 principals of public secondary schools in Delta State. A researcher developed a questionnaire titled: enrolment planning and class allocation practices utilized by principals and students population management scale (EPCAPSPMS) was deployed for data collection. The collected data were organised and analysed using Cronbach Alpha approach which yielded an overall reliability coefficient of 0.80, and this was considered appropriate for the study. The researcher in company of 5 research assistants collected relevant data for the study. Pearson Product Moment Correlation was used for the data analysis. Findings of the study revealed that there is a moderate but positive relationship between principals’ enrolment planning practices and student population management in Delta State public secondary schools. The study also reported that there is a significant relationship between principals’ class allocation practices and student population management in Delta State public secondary schools. The study recommended that Delta State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education should develop and harmonized a class allocation hand book that will content all the foreseeable indices for assigning a potential student to a class without putting the school’s students’ population jeopardy.
三角洲州公立中学学生人口管理中校长的招生计划和班级分配实践
本研究调查的主题是:三角洲州公立中学校长利用的招生计划和班级分配实践作为学生人口管理的相关因素。本研究采用相关研究设计。回答了两个研究问题,并在0.05 α水平上检验了两个假设。研究对象包括三角洲州公立中学的485名校长。研究人员编制了一份调查问卷,题目为“校长的招生计划和班级分配实践”,并采用学生人口管理量表(EPCAPSPMS)进行数据收集。使用Cronbach Alpha方法对收集到的数据进行组织和分析,得出的总体信度系数为0.80,这被认为是适合本研究的。研究者在5名研究助理的陪同下收集了研究的相关数据。使用Pearson积差相关进行数据分析。研究结果表明,三角洲州公立中学校长的招生计划实践与学生人口管理之间存在适度但正的关系。该研究还报告说,在三角洲州公立中学,校长的班级分配做法与学生人数管理之间存在显著关系。该研究建议三角洲州基础和中等教育部应该制定和统一一个班级分配手册,该手册将满足所有可预见的指标,以便在不危及学校学生人数的情况下将潜在学生分配到一个班级。
