This is descriptive research of the survey type invo!ving 301 participants, made up of 196 teachers, 67 heads and 38 District Education Officials who were selected for the study. Questionnaire on human resource/staff development was constructed and validated by the researcher and were ,'administered on the 301 participants to answer the research questions raised fot the study. Percentages and mean rating were further used to analyze the data collected. Findings revealed that when enough funds are provided, there is much time and there are personnel to run the programme, there would not be much difficulty in organizing human r~source development programmes. Also, if heads are attached to the schools and are not teaching, they can perform their functions effectively. Methods that were considered appropriate for staff development were workshops, seminars, talks, in-service training among others. Findings also confirmed that staff development was considered important to upgrade the knowledge of staff, equip them with skills, give them orientation to become effective. From the findings, it was recommended that all heads of basic schools be attached for effecti,,:e work and there was the need for the prompt release of funds by the Government of Ghana for staff development programmes.
