Abstract

This study investigated the effect of in-service teacher education on class management of teachers in public secondary schools in Hargeisa district. The problem of the study was poor class management of teachers in public secondary schools in Hargeisa. About 53.8% of the teachers had poor class management skills, yet over 63.7% of all teachers had attended in-service teacher education. The study determined the variation in class management with in-service teacher education and the effect of in-service teacher education on class management. The study adopted a cross-sectional survey design on a sample of 196 teachers with 95 teachers who had taken in-service teacher education and 56 who had not. The study found that in-service teacher education affects the class management of teachers in public secondary schools. The study recommends that the MoES should carry out a comprehensive evaluation of its in-service teacher education programs to determine the mismatch between the high turnover (63.7%) and low performance, 3.07%.
