dc.description.abstractIn Ondo State, it appears that teachers’ job performance seems to be declining, especially in public secondary schools. This decline is evident in laid back attitude towards the job, poor engagement of students, teaching without a lesson plan and note, complaints from parents, absenteeism, gossiping with other staff, and using abusive words on students, among others. These observed phenomena may be as a result of poor motivation, poor organizational trust, poor leadership styles, heavy workloads, and stress, among others. There exists a gap in existing literature on teachers’ quality and work environment as determinants of the job performance of public secondary school teachers in Ondo State which this study tends to fill. A descriptive survey research design was used to guide the study. The population consists of 8,442 teachers distributed across 290 public secondary schools within Ondo State. A multi- stage sampling procedure that contains different sampling technique was employed. The study utlilised a self-developed questionnaire as instrument for the study. Findings revealed that the level of job performance among teachers in public secondary schools in Ondo State is high (x̄= 3.3); level of teachers quality in public secondary schools in Ondo State is high ( x̄= 3.25); status of work environment of public secondary school in Ondo State is moderate (x̄=2.95); the combined influence of teachers quality and work environment has a significant influence on job performance of public secondary school teachers in Ondo State (Adj. R2 = 0.993, F2,2832 = 197027.746; p < 0.05); work experience has the highest influence on teachers job performance (β = 0.545, t = 45.180, p < 0.05). Based on these findings, it was recommended among others that to sustain and further enhance the high job performance of teachers, it is crucial to maintain existing professional development programmes and expand them.
