Brainpower in the Classroom: The Impact of Knowledge Management on Secondary School Teachers

Abstract

This study examined knowledge management and teacher job performance in public secondary schools. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. A multi-stage sampling procedure was used to select 400 respondents for the study. The data obtained through the instrument were analysed using percentage and Pearson Moment Correlation Coefficient statistical tools. The study’s findings showed that knowledge support, knowledge competency, knowledge sharing, knowledge mapping, and knowledge infrastructure are related to teachers’ job performance. The study’s findings recommended that school principals should encourage knowledge sharing by organising strategies for teachers to share knowledge among themselves; promote collaborative teaching and supervise its effectiveness; cultivate a good practice of accurate record keeping as this will enhance organisational knowledge mapping. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
