Teachers are vital constituents of any educational set up (Ricard & Pelletier, 2016) .

According to Osakwe (2010), principals offer guidance to teachers through their supervision and thus school objectives are achieved through effective teaching and efficient learning. In this regard, principals assist teachers in refining their competencies essential for better teaching of the disciples (Heaton, 2016) .
