The accessible population of the study is 28, 682 which comprised of 27,431 teachers and 1, 251 principals. A sample size of 679 respondents consisting 379 teachers and 300 principals from the three selected states of the South East.

The reliability of the instruments MSSQ and TPQ were established through test re-test method. Data obtained were correlated using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) coefficient which yielded a correction coefficient of 0.84 and 0.85 respectively. The data collected through the administration of the instruments were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation to answer research questions and Linear Regression to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. It was found that: there was a high extent of correlation between provision of adequate physical facilities and teachers’ productivity, there was a significant relationship between provision of adequate physical facilities and teachers’ productivity. There was a high extent of correlation between Regular Staff Development and Teachers’ Productivity and there is significant relationship between regular staff development and teachers’ productivity.
