- W2770577960 abstract "The study sought to ascertain whether the state of infrastructure and the learning environmentin the upgraded secondary schools is supporting the provision of education. The objectives ofthe study, were to: determine the state of school infrastructure in up-graded secondaryschools; determine the state of the learning environment in upgraded secondary schools andidentify the strategies schools have employed in providing education in upgraded secondaryschools.The study used the case study design which employed the qualitative strategy in order toeffectively address the issues raised by the research questions. The method of data collectionincluded in-depth structured interview guide, structured focus group discussion guide andobservation checklist. The target population included three District Education BoardSecretaries, four Head Teachers from four secondary schools, two teachers from the eachsecondary school, six pupils from each secondary school and six parents from each school.Both simple random sampling and purposive sampling techniques were used to select 78respondents. Data were analysed qualitatively. This involved description, explanation andinterpretation of the raw data.The findings of the study revealed that infrastructural facilities were in a bad state and weretoo inadequate to accommodate the increasing number of learners. Classroom blocks in allthe schools were those previously meant for primary schools and hence very inadequateClassrooms were inadequate and not spacious. The findings further indicate shortage ofteachers’ houses, classrooms without windows and the doors had no shutters while the classeswere congested and ranged from 60-70 students per class. Schools lacked laboratories,teaching and learning material. Three schools had no electricity making it difficult to useelectrical appliances.However, the findings also indicate that schools were not just siting idol. Schools were doingsomething about this scenario. The Parents’ Teacher Association in collaboration with schooladministration had started to build classroom blocks and also lobbying from ConstituencyDevelopment fund to help in building new classroom blocks.The study concluded that education was being provided in very difficult circumstances. Theold infrastructure being used was also bad and inadequate. If the government did notintervene now education provision will not be up to date and learning will not be takingplace. The state will have graduates without the skills, knowledge and a changed behaviour tofit in any society beyond Zambia. Based on these findings the study recommends that thegovernment should first allocate some initial funding for infrastructure before upgrading abasic school into a secondary school." @default.
