Abstract
This study investigated teacher accountability and students’ academic achievement in mission secondary schools in Anambra State, Nigeria: an appraisal of market-based accountability model in education. The study adopted the correlational survey method, covering all principals, teachers and students’ result in the senior school certificate examination (SSCE) in mission secondary schools in Anambra State, Nigeria. The stratified random sampling technique was used to select 500 principals and teachers, and 500 students’ SSCE result from 50 schools. The Teacher Accountability, Students’ Academic Achievement Questionnaire (TASAAQ) and Students’ Academic Checklist (SAAC) were used to collect data from respondents. Data collected were analyzed using percentages, means scores, standard deviation, Pearson’s product moment correlation co-efficient and T-test. Findings revealed that the market-based accountability model is not fashionable for teacher accountability in mission secondary schools in mission schools, students’ academic achievement was high, teacher accountability has positive correlation with students’ academic achievement and both principals and teachers agree that teacher accountability is necessary for students’ academic achievement. Study recommended that important tenets of market-based accountability model should be adopted to bring teachers to accountability and increase chances of students’ academic achievement.
