Methodologically, the modes of community participation have been studied at all levels of education management: national, regional, and institutional. Different modes of community participation in the educational process management are regarded as an element of an integral system. Based on results of the conducted analysis it has been concluded that, to enhance the management system in general education in Russia, the use of certain foreign practices seems to be reasonable, provided that they are tailored to the Russian system.

This article focuses on the issues of methodology of the concepts of "quality" and "quality of education" in the relevant regulatory documents and views of the researchers from the ancient – and to our times. The new philosophy of quality is a general category. In addition to products (goods) and services, it generically applies to enterprises, organizations, institutions, their personnel, and management systems. And nowadays, the term "quality" means not only the high quality of goods but also, above all, the way of management, as well as life. In the recent years the issue of the quality of educational services in higher education has gained considerable popularity both in the civil society and in the world. The modern educational paradigm considers this concept as a multifaceted model of social norms and requirements for a personality, an educational environment in which its development and development of a system of education that implements educational tasks at certain stages of study in higher education institutions takes place. It does comprise everything: the quality of the teaching and methodological base, the quality of teaching staff and teaching staff, the quality of providing educational services, the high degree of satisfaction of educational needs of students and, finally, the quality of the subject of learning. The quality of education is a generalized indicator of the development of a society in a particular temporal dimension, and therefore it is considered in the dynamics of changes characterizing the state's progress in the context of the latest world trends. The International Standard also regulates the concept of "quality of education" as a set of properties and characteristics of the educational process that meet the educational needs of consumers of educational services. All these are worldview concepts that have a methodological value to ensure the high quality of education at all stages and levels.

In the 21st century, education is identified not only as one of the fundamental human rights that ensure the quality of life, but also as a key driver for the sustainable development of society. Therefore, in modern society, the pursuit of knowledge should become a priority and a way of life for every young person. These reasons encourage the analysis and evaluation of the factors that determine the quality of education, because the context of today's Lithuanian and European dimensions of education determines the necessity of ensuring the importance of the quality of education from an early age. This situation presupposes a problematic question of the research: what factors determine the quality of primary education. That the analysis requires quality assurance issues at the primary level of education becomes clear from the analysis of scientific, methodological literature and educational documents, as issues of quality of education at this level are insufficiently researched and emphasized. More attention is paid to the analysis of quality education in the pre-school sector and basic school. On the other hand, it is a very important and timely issue, because primary education is the first stage of formal education, which has important goals and objectives related to the child's educational opportunities, challenges and further development perspectives. In order to collect the research data, a questionnaire survey was conducted, in which 110 primary education teachers working in the country's educational institutions participated. A questionnaire was prepared, in which the essential information blocks related to the quality of education of primary school students were singled out: planning and organization of the educational process, creation of the educational environment, the teacher's personality and his professionalism. During the research, the factors that determine the quality of education of primary school students were analyzed theoretically and empirically. Statistically significant differences were found in the assessment of different factors, pedagogical work experience and groups of teachers with different qualification categories. Keywords: education quality, empirical research, primary school, quality assurance

It seems that educational system in Nigeria has undergone only quantitative improvement in terms of number of schools and students’ enrolment. However, there has been little effort in respect to the capacity to manage them through provisions of adequate financial, human, material and physical resources. Physical and material resources in secondary schools were discovered to be inadequate and poorly equipped. Some of the secondary school buildings were dilapidated, also the allocated financial resource, teaching and non-teaching staff are grossly inadequate compared with the students’ enrolment. The public, the Ministry of Education and other stakeholders in education are expressing serious concern about the consistency of the poor performance of secondary school students especially in mathematics. Increase in population and the government’s free education programs make people want to take advantage of the education provided. Provision of both professionally qualified and non-qualified teachers by government and non-state providers of education also appear not to ameliorate the problem of declining performances in mathematics. The effect of all these on the public secondary school student academic performance in mathematics concern the researchers of this study. It is against this background that the study sought to empirically investigates effect of resource factors and quality of instruction on performance in mathematics of Nigeria secondary school students.
