Due to the general level of poverty and insecurity in the country, the contributions of communities and households to educational provision have been negligible. Consequently, the best alternative is prudence in the use of available resources. The inadequacy, deterioration and lack of maintenance of school facilities will spell doom for the teachers and students in the teaching and learning activities. Maintenance enhances performance and durability. It also prevents wastages. There are preventive, corrective, breakdown and shutdown maintenance services. Preventive maintenance occurs regularly by checking and rechecking the available facilities and taking necessary measures to prevent mal functioning or non-functioning of a particular facility. Prevention is not only better: it is also cheaper than any other measure; it is ' proactive in nature. Corrective maintenance involves reactivation or replacement of facilities in order to normalize their performances. When a Facility or equipment breaks down completely, a major repair or replacement may be needed. There may be a time when the institution may need to close down in order to allow a major repair to be carried out. Negligence in the maintenance of school facilities has many negative consequences. When school facilities are not well managed and maintained, they constitute health hazards to pupils and teachers who use the facilities.

Two hundred studies have shown that the only factor that can create student achievement is a knowledgeable, skillful teacher. 1 B. A large scale study found that every additional dollar spent on raising teacher quality netted greater student achievement gains than did any other use of school resources. 2 C. Researchers in the Dallas School District have shown that having a less effective teacher can significantly lower a student's performance over time, even if the student gets more competent teachers later on. 3 D. A study comparing low and high achieving elementary school students in New York City found that teacher qualifications accounted for 90 percent of the variation between the best and the worst students. 4 E. Schools with more experienced and more highly educated mathematics teachers tended to have higher achieving students. Even in very poor schools, students achieved if they had a well-prepared teacher. 5
