Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Maladjustment behavior in public primary school pupils is a critical issue that impacts not only the individual students but also the overall school environment. This research project aims to explore and propose effective strategies for curbing maladjustment behaviors in this specific group of students. The study will involve a comprehensive review of existing literature on interventions and approaches used to address maladjustment behavior in school settings. The research will utilize a mixed-methods approach involving both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. Surveys and questionnaires will be used to gather information from teachers, parents, and students themselves regarding their experiences and perspectives on maladjustment behavior in public primary schools. Additionally, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions will be conducted to provide a deeper insight into the factors contributing to maladjustment behavior and the potential strategies that could be implemented to address these issues effectively. The findings from the research will be analyzed to identify common themes and patterns related to maladjustment behavior in public primary school pupils. Based on the results, a set of strategies will be proposed to help educators and policymakers effectively curb maladjustment behaviors in this student population. These strategies may include targeted interventions, social-emotional learning programs, counseling services, parent involvement initiatives, and teacher training programs aimed at enhancing classroom management skills and fostering positive relationships with students. It is expected that the proposed strategies will provide a practical and evidence-based framework for addressing maladjustment behavior in public primary school pupils. By implementing these strategies, schools can create a supportive and inclusive environment that promotes positive behavior and academic success among students. Additionally, the research findings may contribute to the existing knowledge on effective interventions for addressing maladjustment behavior in school settings and inform future research in this area. Overall, this research project seeks to make a valuable contribution to the field of education by offering practical solutions to the complex issue of maladjustment behavior in public primary school pupils. By understanding the factors influencing maladjustment behavior and implementing targeted strategies, schools can create a positive and nurturing environment that supports the overall well-being and academic achievement of all students.

Thesis Overview

INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
Primary schools are established with the aim of producing
pupils who are worthy in character and learning. Pupils are expected to acquire knowledge, skills, experience and discipline
that will help them sharpen their destiny and rebuild them from
what they used to be to what they intend to become. Pupils at
this level of education fall between the ages of 6 to 11 plus (NPE,
2004). This period is described as the childhood age period which
has been christened by some psychologists as a period below the
legal age of responsibility or accountability (Okobia & Ohen,
2006). Children like human beings are social in nature. They
hardly live in isolation but prefer to live and interact with one
another (Idowu & Yahaya, 2013).
The urge for a child to interact in school usually creates
some challenges which need to be addressed especially in
primary schools. A child is a person who is below the age of
adulthood (Oke, 2009). In the context of this study therefore, a
child is a person who is below the age of adulthood and is in the
primary school.

Primary school is education given to children from aged 6-
12 years in schools. It is a transition into secondary schools.
Primary school is education given in an educational institution
for children aged 6 to 11 years plus (NPE, 2004). The author also
noted that primary education is the pivot upon which the whole
system of education revolves. The Federal Republic of Nigeria
(2004:14) highlighted the objectives of primary education as
follows: Inculcating permanent literacy and numeracy, and ability
to communicate effectively, laying of a sound basis for scientific
and reflective thinking; giving citizenship education as a basis for
effective participation in and contribution to the life of the
society; moulding the character and developing sound attitude
and morals in the child; developing in the child the ability to
adapt to his changing environment among others.
These objectives if vigorously pursued is expected to
transform the child at the end of primary education to
demonstrate decent and decorous conduct, respect for authority,
high sense of responsibility, love for orderliness, eagerness to
discharge duties among others (Peter & Felicia, 2013). However,
when a child fails to discharge these characteristics,
maladjustment behaviour.
