Abstract:
The study, conducted in Nyakrom Secondary Technical School in Ghana, sought to find out whether the
teaching and learning space facilities were being used efficiently. Structured and unstructured questionnaire
items were utilized to elicit information from fifty (50) students in twelve (12) classes using stratified random
sampling and ten (10) teachers and six (6) administrators using the purposive sampling method. Interviews were
conducted among the ten teachers and six administrators. Data collected was analysed by means of descriptive
statistics, frequency distribution tables and percentages. The result of the study showed that contrary to the
prevailing perception, Nyakrom Secondary Technical School had not exceeded its optimum enrolment and that
the school could comfortably accommodate more than the existing 560 student population, if teaching and
learning space facilities were efficiently utilized. There was the need to plan an effective timetable that would
take into consideration the spaces, class size and class enrolment. Finally, it was revealed that the classrooms
needed to be adequately furnished and the school should be provided with a well-equipped, spacious assembly
hall for meetings and examinations to withstand the test of time
