Chapter One: Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

National education policies in Nigeria aim to improve access to quality education, promote equity, and enhance student performance across the country (Bello & Gambo, 2023). These policies, including the Universal Basic Education (UBE) Act, have led to significant increases in enrollment rates, particularly in primary and secondary education. However, despite these advancements, student performance remains suboptimal in many regions, including Sokoto Local Government, Sokoto State (Yusuf & Jibril, 2024). Several factors, such as inadequate teaching resources, teacher quality, and infrastructure, continue to hinder the effectiveness of these policies. This study seeks to assess the impact of national education policies on student performance in Sokoto and identify the challenges that affect educational outcomes.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

In Sokoto Local Government, despite the implementation of national education policies aimed at improving the quality of education, student performance in public schools continues to fall short of expectations. Factors such as inadequate teacher training, poor infrastructure, and lack of learning materials contribute to low academic achievement (Salihu & Umar, 2024). This study will investigate the extent to which national education policies have improved student performance and explore the barriers to their successful implementation.

1.3 Objectives of the Study

1. To assess the impact of national education policies on student performance in Sokoto Local Government.

2. To identify the challenges affecting the successful implementation of national education policies in Sokoto.

3. To recommend strategies for improving the effectiveness of national education policies in Sokoto.

1.4 Research Questions

1. How have national education policies impacted student performance in Sokoto Local Government?

2. What challenges hinder the successful implementation of national education policies in Sokoto?

3. What strategies can improve the impact of national education policies on student performance in Sokoto?

1.5 Research Hypotheses

1. National education policies have positively impacted student performance in Sokoto Local Government.

2. Poor infrastructure and inadequate teacher training limit the effectiveness of national education policies in Sokoto.

3. Improved resources and teacher development programs will enhance student performance in Sokoto.

1.6 Significance of the Study

This study will contribute to the understanding of the impact of national education policies on student performance, particularly in northern Nigeria. The findings will provide policymakers, educators, and school administrators with useful insights on how to improve the implementation of education policies and address the challenges faced by students and teachers.

1.7 Scope and Limitations of the Study

The study will focus on Sokoto Local Government and evaluate the specific impact of national education policies on student performance. It does not cover other local governments in Sokoto State or other education policies unrelated to national education reforms. Limitations include challenges in accessing data from schools and teachers and potential biases in reporting academic performance.
