ABSTRACT
Today most of the school building which are supposed to promote and enhance teaching, learning and extra-curricular activities are obsolete and thereby causing serious challenges to the 21st century educational needs of the learners. Most public secondary school hostels buildings in Niger state were built during the colonial era, many of them are so old that they are dilapidated and unsafe for human occupation. Thus, the study aims to evaluate the performance of public secondary school hostel buildings in Niger State. The study utilized a quantitative approach where structured questionnaires were distributed to hostel facility managers and student users of higher classes. A total of 187 questionnaires were retrieved out of the 218 distributed which represent 85.32%. The collected data were analysed using a descriptive statistical method such as relative importance index (RII), the Percentile, and the ranking method. The study revealed that 11 variables which represents 29.73% are in good condition and performance which indicates that the variables do not require immediate maintenance. Sixteen (16) variables which represent 43.24% are fair in condition and performance and ten (10) variables which represents 27.03% have poor condition and performance. It also revealed that the building users are satisfied with the condition and performance of 6 variables, dissatisfied with 10 and fairly satisfied with 21 of the variables. Furthermore, it also revealed that the correlation between the level of building performance attributes and user’s satisfaction level is low because (13.25%) implies a positive, but weak statistical relationship between the two set of variables. The research concludes that 70.27% of the variables have performance issues and will require immediate attention or maintenance. It also concluded that 83.78% of the components are in a state that can best be described as dissatisfactory. The relationship is weak, but the positive value obtained indicates that as the condition of the hostels are changing, there will be a corresponding change in the satisfaction level of the occupants. Based on the findings, the study recommends that effective building performance evaluation and maintenance management practices be carried out on the public secondary school hostel building to improve its conditions and comfort of users. Regular inspections and maintenance should be carried out in hostels and adequate funding should be provided for this purpose. It also recommends that BPEs can be conducted from time to time to inform the relevant professionals on the cost cutting measures through effective designs that can be adopted for the construction of similar projects in the future.
