Didactic Material: Road Map for the Implementation of Competency Based Approach to English in Secondary Schools in South West Region

The problem of this study emanates from the continuous decline in the result of English language at the GCE ordinary and advanced Level results despite the introduction of the Competency-Based Approach (Futrher-CBA). To examine the prevailing situation, the main objective is to evaluate the effect of didactic material on teaching and learning on the implementation of CBA to English language in secondary schools. The research question: what is the effect of didactic material on the implementation of CBA to English Language in Secondary Schools Curriculum in South West Region? From the findings, the null hypothesis was rejected and the study concluded that there is a significant statistical evidence to suggest that didactic materials have a significant effect on the implementation of CBA to English language in secondary schools in south-west region. The researcher suggests that stakeholders should equip the schools with modern valuable didactic materials, a compulsory involvement of teachers in decision-making on curriculum change, rigorous implementation of in-service and pre-service training of teachers on CBA, and that policymakers should not import and adapt any language teaching approach from the west without considering contextual constraints.
