Abstract | The purpose for this research was to examine the relationship between school supervision and school improvement, as perceived by parents, teachers, and supervisors of schools in the Mampong Municipality.

Simple random sampling technique was used to select the student respondents whiles purposive sampling method was employed to select parents and the teachers. The study employed descriptive cross-sectional design. Questionnaire was the main instrument used to collect quantitative data. The reliability of the instrument was 0.78 for the School Supervision Questionnaire and 0.72 for School Improvement Scale. The quantitative data collected were subjected to statistical analyses using independence sample t –test to test hypotheses formulated at 0.05 level of significance. Interviews were also conducted with 20 teachers and 20 parents to find out how teachers and parents perceive school supervision and school improvement, as well as factors contributing to school improvement. Findings indicated that Both teachers and parents have similar line of perception that supervision improves learning and teaching gain, whiles majority of parents perceive school improvement as the improvement in academics, majority of teachers perceive school improvement as supply of infrastructural facilities. It was also found that school supervision has significant positive effect on school improvement. Based on these findings it was recommended that supervisors should be relieved of too many administrative duties in order for them to concentrate on their supervisory work and to have enough time to make supervision of schools on regular basis. Also, there is an urgent need to recruit more supervisors to cope with the strength of the ever increasing number of schools.
