Abstract
This work contains an evaluation on the effects of administration on academic performance in private secondary schools.
Private schools started as an initiative to provide quality education and help government to deliver education services to the community.
Much as this initiative was meant to support government effort to educate the citizens, the performance has so far not been satisfactory. The study is reported in subsequent chapters. This was guided by three independent variable namely; democratic leadership management on academic performance, motivation on academic performance and discipline and welfare on academic performance.
The study was set out to answer three research questions formulated by the researcher;
These included:
How does democratic leadership management affect academic performance in private secondary schools in Arua district?
To want extend does motivation of teachers affect academic performance of private schools in Arua district?
What are the effects of discipline and welfare of staff on academic performance of private schools in Arua district?
In answering these questions the researcher used 338 respondents drawn from Arua municipality. The research used two separate self-administered questionnaires and an interview guide to obtain the pertinent data.
Since this had been a descriptive study, the research analyzed data and quantified them in percentages which made comparison quite realistic and easy to understand.
The results indicated among other things that;
There was no democratic leadership management in private schools.
Motivation as a factor that reinforces human labor to perform better was not given a priority
Teachers discipline and welfare was not considered at all but the students indiscipline was seen cultivated in private schools.
In this respect therefore, all the above independent variables affect performance in private schools in Arua district seriously.
