dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the influence of Workload and school Plants Indices on the job performance of teachers in public senior secondary schools in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State. While the decline in the job performance of teachers in secondary schools poses a significant threat to the quality of education and the future of students is extensively discussed in literature, there remains a dearth of empirical evidence on the joint influence of Workload and school plant indices on teacher’s job performance in public senior secondary schools in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State. The study was guided by Social Exchange Theory and Systems Theory. Four research questions were posed, and four hypotheses were formulated. Descriptive survey research was utilized. The population comprised of all public senior secondary school teachers in Ibadan Metropolis (N=8,315) while the sample size was 825 with a response rate of 85.5%. Data were collected via an adapted questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics (frequency, percentages, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (linear multiple regression). The results showed that instructional and administrative job performances were high and under teacher’s workload, class size was moderate while teacher-student ratio was high. Availability of school plants such as staffrooms and school convenience were moderate, while their adequacy was observed to be low. Result from the regression analysis revealed a significant combined influence of workload and school plants on teacher’s job performance (p<0.05). Also, a statistically significant gender difference was observed, with male teachers outperforming female (p<0.05). In conclusion, the teachers’ workload and school plant indices have huge potential in influencing teacher job performance. It was recommended among others that school administrators should explore strategies for reducing class sizes and hiring additional staff. This will help distribute the workload more evenly and improve teacher satisfaction and performance Keywords: Workload, School Plant, School Convenience, Teacher’s Job Performance, Instructional Job performance, Administrative Job Performance Word Count: 293
