The purpose of this study was to investigate why some principals prefer to embrace
certain leadership styles and the effect of such styles on the teachers’ attitude to work.
The study adopted a descriptive research design. The random sampling technique was
used to draw a sample of teachers and principals from the secondary schools in Abeokuta
South Local Government Area. Structured questionnaire and interview were used to elicit
information from the respondents. The questionnaire adopted the four point rating,
which enabled respondents to indicate the extent of agreement or disagreement with the
questionnaire items.
The data collected were subjected to a number of statistical analyses, including
frequency counts and percentages, t-test and x2
-tests.
The following were the finding of the study: The administrative styles adopted by the
principals of secondary schools in Abeokuta South Local Government Area were found to
be inadequate for effective school administration. The personality traits exhibited by the
principals appeared somewhat harsh to their subordinates. Teachers in these schools
were not adequately motivated and encouraged to carry out their duties.Based on the
above findings it is recommended that principals in Abeokuta South Local Government
Secondary Schools should not see themselves as all in all. They should involve their
subordinates when taking vital decisions. There should be free flow of information in the
schools. The work has implication for policy and practice of secondary education in
Abeokuta South Local Government Area.
