Four objectives were formulated for the study, two of which were to assess the perceptions of stakeholders on provision and utilization of human resources in secondary schools in North-Central Zone of Nigeria and to examine the perceptions of stakeholders on provision and utilization of material resources in secondary schools in North-Central Zone of Nigeria. Four research questions were asked in relation to the objectives. Four hypotheses were formulated to guide the study.
