The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The study was guided by system's theory of organizations as advanced by Karst and Ronsezweig (1985). A total of 53 class eight teachers from 18 public primary schools in Kimilili Sub-county were selected for study by stratified random sampling technique. Questionnaires were used for data collection.
