INTRODUCTION ...

The school and the community serve as alliances in national development

. How can the school adminstrator determine the parameters of this
symbolic relationship ?
Good practice is based on sound theories . Any training
of NSTP students must provide for the field application
of learned concept, theories and methods in the
classroom experience

This ia very important for the development of skills

. The development of a positive attitude towards
work and responsibilities may accrue as a result of
extensive training in the school but are further
refined in the society
