Frequencies, percentages, bar chat, mean, standard deviation, variance and analysis of variance were used to answer the research questions and to analyze the result from the hypothesis. The results revealed that there are insufficient qualified teachers teaching basic science related subjects in the sampled school as the percentages of the unqualified teachers constituted about 32.86%.
