The sample size for the study was 113 preschool teachers and 56 head teachers. Data for the study was collected using an observation checklist, pre-school teachers’ and the primary school head teachers’ questionnaires. Data was analysed with the help of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) and the study findingswere presented in frequency distribution tables and percentages.
