dc.description.abstractThe global corona virus upsurge, also known as the COV1D-19 pandemic, poses a significant threat to the health and safety of students, teachers, parents, school administrators and educators. This paper looked at the needs and coping strategies of school teachers in Kwara State, Nigeria, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Two research questions and three hypotheses were raised to guide the study. A sample of 414 teachers was taken from a population of5,000 teachers in Kwara State, which comprises 239 public schools and 175 private schools, and 124 primary school and 290 secondary teachers respectively. A structured questionnaire titled "Teachers Coping Strategies and Needs Questionnaire"(TCNQ) was used to gather data for the study. Reliability analysis was carried out using pilot test method. The reliability co-efficient was 0.72. The following statistical tools: descriptive statistics, Pearson Product Moment Correlation, T-test, and ANOVA were used to analyze the data obtained with R, STATA, and SPSS. There was a positive but weak correlation between teacher's needs and coping strategies (r=0.416, p.05). It was also discovered that the male teachers' needs differ significantly from the female teachers' needs. Also, similar coping strategies were adopted by both male and female teachers. Keywords: Coping strategies, school teachers' needs, COVID-19 pandemic, Corona Vims disease
