The development of any society is closely linked to the educational standards of the people, for example, in Nigeria, it is believed that, the higher the level of educational attainment, the better the conditions of living and hence the overall development of the citizens. For this reason the Federal Republic of Nigeria has adopted education as an instrument of National development. Staff management has been observed to have enormous consequences on the successful running of private primary schools in Nigeria, since good Staff management will bring about the realization of the educational and millennium developmental goals (MDGs). Heads of private primary schools and their subordinates therefore have the managerial responsibilities of planning, directing, controlling and organizing available resources (human and material) to achieving the necessary goals for national development.
