dc.description.abstractThe role which compensation plays in boosting teachers’ morale towards performing their duties in a way which would enhance school effectiveness cannot be over-emphasised. Hence, this paper discussed compensation as financial and non-financial rewards which government provides for teachers to enhance their satisfaction level and school effectiveness. The components of compensation were identified as salary, promotion, training opportunities and health services. This paper was premised on Two-factor theory which was propounded by Fredrick Herzberg in 1959. It emphasized on motivating factors and hygiene factors. School effectiveness was discussed as the extent to which the school achieves its stated goals, especially in the aspect of students’ academic performance. It was concluded that adequate and timely provision of compensation to the teachers is a way of continually boosting their morale towards performing their job in a way that would facilitate effectiveness of Kwara State secondary schools. Based on the discussions, it was suggested, among other things, that government should ensure that teachers’ salary is timely and adequately paid at the end of the months, to enhance the actualisation of school effectiveness. Also, government should, as a matter of urgency, genuinely implement the New Minimum Wage for teachers to increase their monthly take-home, as against the consequential adjustment, so as to be able to take care of themselves and the families better, and get more motivated to perform their duties better to actualise school effectiveness.
