Stakeholder collaboration and quality of education in Uganda: a case of Kampala City Council Authority Primary schools

Abstract

Quality has become the concern of educational policy-makers around the world as the heart of education. Lack of quality means basic educational needs go unsatisfied. This would create inability in learners’ lives and compromise their overall experience of living socially, culturally and economically. KCCA primary schools are often criticized as inefficient, characterized with low levels of fitness for purpose and value for money to most stakeholders, and inadequate transformation of the learners into all round future human resources. Some of the reasons the provision of low-quality education services particularly in KCCA primary schools in Uganda, may be associated with ineffective stakeholder collaboration. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between stakeholder collaboration and quality of education services in KCCA primary schools in Uganda. Findings revealed that there was a significant positive correlation between stakeholder collaboration and quality education.
