INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Every nation aims at empowering and equipping her citizens for meaningful living. This is achieved through education. Education, according to Odoemenam (2008), is the transmission of knowledge, skills, ideas, attitudes and patterns of behaviour to a learner.
Education is one of the most powerful instruments known for reducing poverty and inequality, as well as the basis for sustained economic growth. Education is the most important instrument of change (FGN, 2004).
Education is fundamental for the construction of democratic, dynamic societies and globally competitive economies. Any person, society or even nation that is knowledgeable is economically powerful.
Good education, therefore, bestows power on people, societies or nations as education is the tool for human capital development. No nation can achieve meaningful development without human capital development (Nwajinka and Odogo, 2008).
In Nigeria, there are four levels of education. These are the childhood or pre- primary, primary, secondary and higher or tertiary levels of education. The pre-primary education is mainly aimed at preparing the child for primary education and effecting a smooth transition from the home to the school.
Pre-primary education is for children below the age of six. The primary education, meant for children aged 6 to 11 plus, is the foundational level of education. The success or failure of education system depends greatly on what happens at this level.
