It is a veritable instrument for development of all human potentials which is the most powerful lever for shaping the future. It is a tool through which a country’s socioeconomic, cultural, political, scientific and technological development are achieved. Education is the instrument for empowering both young and old with knowledge and skills which provide them access to productive employment. It is therefore very imperative that education obtained and provided in any country, should be handled by quality teaching personnel so as to produce the desired quality individuals that can manage the country’s resources. The indispensability of<br>education in human and national development has necessitated the United Nation’s clarion call for ‘Education For All’ (EFA) in 1990 at Jomtien. To realize this laudable objective, teachers have important role to play, as they are the catalysts of every educational system at all levels.</p> ER -
