Abstract

There is a growing and proposed increase in spending on education, which tends to encourage inquiry into what the impact of such investment will be in light of students with regards to the problem of learning poverty. This study revealed that acquiring highly standardized education has the potential to produce significant learning gains at larger scales. Social learning theory was adopted to serve as an undergirded theory in this study. Thus, finding suggests that policymakers may wish to investigate the possibility of incorporating standardization into the educational systems in Nigeria, including standardized lesson plans as well as teacher feedback, monitoring, and coaching. The findings indicates favorable benefits on reading abilities including sound functional memory and self-reliance, as well as the participation of both teachers and parents in their students' educational experiences.
