The paper also identified inadequate funding, shortage of professional teachers, inadequate infrastructural facilities, ineffective supervision, corruption and lack of data to plan as problems militating against effective administration of primary schools in Nigeria. To solve these problems identified, the following were recommended; that the government should increase the funding of primary school education by implementing the UNESCO 26% recommendation for an annual budget of education in Nigeria.
