Abstract
Description
This paper discussed the challenges school leaders are faced with in the Nigerian schools. Secondary data were organized from both print and online publications. The paper concluded that fund shortage, inadequate professional teachers, shortage of infrastructure facilities, shortage of instructional materials, unstable policies, political influence, insecurity, corruption, overcrowding of classes and brain-drain are some of the obstacles hindering efficient service delivery. Based on these challenges, the paper recommends that government should increase budgetary allocation to schools, employ more professional teachers in the schools, provide more infrastructure facilities, and instructional materials in the schools among other remedial measures.
