  the quality of public secondary school in Central Senatorial district of Delta 
  State, Nigeria. Three research questions were raised and three null hypotheses 
  formulated to guide the study. The instrument designed were administered in 
  person to 574 respondents made up of 52 principals and 522 teachers sampled 
  from the target population of 152 principals and 4,408 teachers. A stratified 
  random sampling technique was employed. The instrument was validated in its 
  face and content values and found reliable at 0.77 reliability coefficient using 
  the Spearman Brown Prophesy formula. Data collected were analysed with mean 
  scores standard deviation and the three null hypotheses were tested using the 
  Z-test at 0.05 level of significance. The findings showed that private sector 
  has contributed to quality school buildings and that the private sector has 
  not contributed to well equipped libraries and laboratories in the schools while 
  government should make laws that will compel the private sector to participate 
  actively in enhancing the quality of public secondary schools.
