| Summary: | This study investigated quality assurance and management of basic education improvement in North-central, Nigeria. The aims of this study are to determine the relationship between external supervision, classroom-based student assessment, staff development and management of basic education improvement in North-central. To achieve this, three hypotheses were formulated and tested. Quantitative research design was used for the study. The population of this study comprised all 12,775 head teachers and 93, 201 teachers in public primary schools in North-central. Sample of 375 head teachers and 384 teachesr were proportionally selected in the seven states with the use of Research Advisor (2006), table of determining sample size of known population. Stratified random sampling techniques was used to select head teachers and teachers of the sample primary schools in order to ensure that every member of the population has equal right and chance of being selected. T-test statistical analysis was used to analyze the collected data. The results show that there was no significant difference between external supervision, classroom-based student assessment, staff development and management of basic education in Nigeria.
