THE EFFECT OF POOR TEACHER AND PUPILS’ RELATIONSHIP IN ACADEMIC ATTAINMENT.

Chapter One

Introduction

(i)      Background of the study

          Education is a highly rated public venture used as an instrument par excellence in national development.  Credence is given to this view by the five national objectives of Nigeria in the second National Development Plan and endorsed as the necessary foundation for the National Policy on Education. Based on using education a tool for the realization of the national objectives, various other achievement are expected from education in national devilment, such aims are as follows:

  Better human relationship

Self realization

Individual and national unity

Olumba (1999)

          These aims can never be actualized if there are poor relationship existing between the teacher and his pupils.  Bringing these aims to reality depends on the orientation of teachers and pupils in the educational system because good education requires trained and committed teachers, who will carry the pupils along way to achieve the educational goals.   Therefore, the purpose of introducing this study or subject is to make the teacher/pupils functional in relating well with one another and discharging their respective duties in order to achieve the aims of the National Policy on Education.

          Philosophy of education laid emphasis on human relation in the process of teaching and learning.  It is believed that teaching in every respect is a serious business and should be seen to be so.  As a banker is governed by certain principles, which make him expert in his field, so is the teacher governed by certain principles which made him to be expert in his own area of specialization.

          Teaching is the process of inculcating in the learner the desirable knowledge, culture, skills, value and norms which will make him to be useful to himself and the society at large.  Therefore to promote the relationship between the teacher and pupils, the teacher must determine the best efficient and effective methods of teaching, then select materials to create conducive learning experiences that will utilize the content associated with each objectives.

          However, in order to improve children, it is necessary that pedagogy becomes a study; otherwise, there is nothing to hope from it.  To this end, a careful analysis of any method must precede its use.  This is where philosophy comes in.  So it is on philosophy that the art of education must wait for a design of action.  Evident are the several theoretical models which philosophers and educators have come up with according to their best or frame of mental dispositions.  For example, the nationalists emphasized on motivation, direct experience and on maintaining interest of the child.  Their main concern is to create suitable environment in order to influence the development of an individual.   Pragmatist recommend socialized techniques, projects and problem-solving method.  Yet, the divergent and wide these schools are, they focus on common problem militating against education, the aims of education, the nature of the learner, educational content, method and the condition under which the learners can obtain the maximum experience.

          Moreover, in view of the above background the researchers are challenged to find out the effect of poor teacher and pupils’ relationship in academic attainment in primary schools, A case study in Enugu South Local Government Area.

(ii)       Statement of the Problems

The effect of poor teacher and pupils’ relationship in primary schools in Enugu Urban has led to poor academic performance, formation of bad gangs by pupils, perpetual hatred to teachers, neglect of some subjects (for example, English Language), which then gave rise to serious problems for the realization of educational objectives.

It is unfortunate that a good number of pupils have lost virtues of good behavior since their teachers did no longer show them love, caring and affections. This is applicable to pupils from home of poor economic backgrounds.  A good number of pupils in our homes lack respect for their parents, teachers, let alone elders.  Teachers keep complaining of the attitude of the pupils whenever they meet them on street, market, and their homes without realizing that they are the cause of the bad attitude they observe in their pupils.  There are cases of pupils on seeing their teachers, they will hide away from them, calling their teachers names that are not their real names and so on.

Therefore, until the factors that affect poor teacher and pupils’ relationship are positively addressed/dealt with, the national objectives on education can never be realized.
