Educational Research and Reviews, v7 n8 p192-195 Feb 2012
This paper focused on how Nigeria' teeming youth requires a high level of seriousness from all stakeholders: the student, school administrators, teaching staff, parents, educational agencies and the government. There had been much emphasis on the need for everyone to understand and play specifically assigned roles, and to ensure that the posterity is not marred by foundational flaws in child discipline. It had been noted that all the stakeholders are significant to the sustainability of discipline in secondary institutions; a continuous and effective exposition for each category is significant to the achievement of remarkable success. This study reviews the unavoidable responsibilities of vice principals in the disciplining of students in Oyo state. The importance of comparing the past and present forms of discipline in a bid to fabricate a better future for the next generation was also considered. The paper stresses that inculcating the foundation of discipline in students can only be successful if educators know the implication of failing to guide their wards to the threshold of success. Hence, the need to squarely face and resolve any observed decay and decadence of norms and values in our secondary schools with vice principals playing a significant role.
