dc.description.abstractThis study examined teachers’ assessment of the level of community involvement in early childhood and primary education programmes in Ilorin West Local Government Area of Kwara State. Five research questions were raised and answered in the study. Descriptive survey research design was adopted in this study. The population comprised all public primary school teachers in Ilorin West L.G.A. Two hundred (200) teachers of public primary schools were randomly selected to participate in the study. A researcher-designed instrument titled “Questionnaire on Community Involvement in Childhood Education (QCICE)” was used to collect data from the respondents after the face and content validity was ascertained and reliability coefficient of 0.76 was obtained. Descriptive statistics of frequency count, percentage and mean were adopted to analyse the data generated. Outcomes of the study revealed that community members do not participate in the area classroom instruction, provision of learning materials, recruitment of personnel for schools, provision of physical structures as well as funding of early childhood and primary education programmes. It was concluded therefore, that, the level of community involvement in early childhood and primary education programmes in Ilorin West Local Government Area of Kwara State is low. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that adult members of the community should be more sensitized on the importance of their participation in the education of young members of their community.en_US
