Abstract

It adopted descriptive survey design, with a sample of 140 teachers using stratified sampling technique. A researcher-designed questionnaire was used to collect data.

Data analysis was carried out using mean and standard deviation, while linear regression was used to test the hypotheses. Findings of the study revealed low principal/teachers' relations (mean = 1.94) and low supervisory practices in schools (Mean = 1.92); while principal/teachers' relations significantly influenced teachers' joh performance (F(96) 333, P<0.05) and principals supervisory practices also influenced teachers' job performance in schools (F/96) 912, P<0.05). It was concluded that principal/teachers relations and supervisory practices influenced teachers' job performances in the schools.
