CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background of the Study

Business teachers are not only very important in natural

development but are just indispensable because they provide the

skilled labour necessary for the development.

It is the task of these business teachers to train students to

acquire the necessary skills in accounting, type-writing, and office

practice. There is a great need for commercial teachers in Nigerian

secondary schools.

With this in mind we can conveniently conclude that it is

better to secure the right kind of people in teaching profession,

sponsoring them in seminars and workshops, ensuring them

necessary allowances and promotion.

It seems that there is growing shortage of competent teachers

in Nigerian secondary schools with business programs, especially

in Bauchi state. The teachers may teach for a short time and resign

their appointment as soon as they get other better paid jobs. Those

who stay to teach may be given subject outside their area of

specialization.

In addition, it has been observed that some teachers spend

considerable amount of time on outside economic pursuit in other

to make ends meet.

In Bauchi state, poor rapport between the principals and the

teachers coupled with the poor payment of salaries to the teachers

limit the retention of trained business teachers.

Lack of payment of housing allowance, night allowance, leave

grant medical bills and lack of loan from government discourage

serving teachers to stay in teaching profession.

This result to training shortage of business teachers in

Bauchi state, in Bauchi state, lack of sponsorship, seminars and

workshop, lack of promotion and yearly increment of salaries when

it is due, influence the economic and social status of the teachers.

This impression manifests in Nigeria.

The government seems to be nonchalant to the needs of the

teachers in general. The researcher therefore wants to investigate

whether the various problems spotlighted above are responsible

for the exodus of business teachers in Bauchi state.
