Investigation on how teaching and learning resources are allocated at Shamavunga Circuit, Limpopo, South Africa
Shamavunga Circuit's teaching and learning resources were investigated. Teaching and learning resources include classroom materials, financial, physical, and human resources that support education in public schools. The study collected data quantitatively by surveying participating principals, department heads, teachers, and school board members. We used a random sampling approach. The study's target population included all ten schools on Shamavunga Circuit, as well as their administrators, teachers, board members, and department heads. There were 10 principals, 20 department heads, 40 teachers, and 30 school board members. The sample consisted of 100 students from ten Shamavunga Secondary Schools. The new democratic administration in South Africa inherited a very divided and uneven education system, which impacted student achievement. Investing in a school's physical, teaching, and learning resources has been shown to impact student and teacher motivation.
