Abstract
The study investigated factors responsible for the proliferation of private nursery and primary schools in Afijio Local Government Area, Oyo State. The study adopted a descriptive research design and sought to answer three research questions. The targeted population for this study comprised all educated adults in the local government. Simple random sampling technique was used to select one hundred and fifty (150) respondents. A researcher-designed questionnaire titled Private Nursery and Primary Schools Questionnaire (PNPSQ) was used for data gathering. Frequency and percentage count was used to analyze respondents’ demographic data, while descriptive statistics of percentage, range and mean were used to answer the research questions. The findings revealed that falling standard of education in the public schools, lack of the needed infrastructural facilities and equipment for teaching and learning in public schools, inadequate supervision in the public schools, higher discipline rate in private schools and higher performance of students in private schools than public schools were perceived as factors responsible for the proliferation of private nursery and primary schools in Afijio Local Government Area. Recommendations were made that Government should provide the facilities and equipment needed in public schools to improve pupils’ performances; Government should ensure adequate and regular supervision of private and public schools to ensure quality assurance; and parents, pupils and teachers should work hand-in-hand with the government to achieve quality education.
