| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between curriculum management by school principals and student academic performance. The context of the study was in select public secondary schools in Kirinyaga and Nyeri counties, Kenya. The study applied a concurrent mixed research design. The target population was students, teachers, and principals from public secondary schools in Kirinyaga and Nyeri counties. Stratified random sampling was adopted, which resulted in 331 students, 305 teachers, and 30 principals. Data collection was through questionnaires for students and teachers and interviews conducted with the school principals. Regression analysis was computed using SPSS, and the qualitative analysis was completed using the NVivo software. Study results indicate that curriculum management has a significant influence on student academic performance (p < 0.05). Curriculum management in the study relates to the role of school principals in adopting approaches that would enhance the effective implementation of the curriculum. Curriculum management was also examined in the context of the ability of school principals to mobilise relevant resources required to support learning. The study recommends that school principals should enroll in curriculum-related courses in order to improve their overall preparedness for curriculum implementation. | |
