An Assessment of Instructional Efficiency Under Real-Time Classroom Monitoring Among Primary School Teachers at Ifako-Ijaiye Local Government Education Authority, Lagos State
Abstract
This study assesses teachers? instructional efficiency under real-time classroom monitoring (RTCM) among primary school teachers in Ifako Ijaiye Local Government Education Authority (LGEA), Lagos State. The research was driven by the increasing emphasis on performance-based monitoring in public education and the need to evaluate how RTCM influences teaching effectiveness. A descriptive survey design was adopted, involving structured questionnaires administered to selected teachers across public primary schools in the LGEA. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and linear regression. Findings revealed that RTCM is moderately practiced, with many teachers experiencing real-time supervision and feedback mechanisms. Teachers generally perceived RTCM as a constructive process that enhances accountability, lesson planning, classroom management, and student engagement. However, they also reported challenges such as anxiety and increased workload. Despite these, most adopted coping strategies including peer collaboration and advance lesson rehearsals. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between the frequency of RTCM and teachers? instructional efficiency (r = 0.621, p < 0.05). Teachers? positive perceptions of RTCM were also significantly correlated with improved teaching outcomes (r = 0.576, p < 0.05). Furthermore, regression analysis confirmed that RTCM has a significant effect on lesson delivery and classroom management (? = 0.48, p < 0.05). The study concludes that RTCM, when implemented constructively, can serve as a powerful tool to enhance instructional quality in primary education. Recommendations include the institutionalization of RTCM, continuous teacher training, provision of appropriate monitoring tools, and the integration of formative feedback into supervision processes.
