Abstract
According to Kafu (2006),a society's educational system dictates its destiny. The study set out to determine the effects of teacher training on implementation of life skills education in public secondary schools in Mwala Subcounty,Machakos County, Kenya. The research employed a descriptive survey approach, gathering data through interviews with Dean's of studies and surveys with students and school administrators. Out of a total of seventy one public secondary schools.twenty two (or thirty percent) were chosen. In the study, the researcher utilized both probability and non- probability sampling strategies. In order to assess the qualitative data that was gathered, Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 22.0was utilized. Standard deviation, percentages and pie charts were used to depict the data. The majority of teachers do not have degrees or certifications related to teaching students practical life skills,the study found. Appart from that,the study proved that educating teachers is positively correlated with incorporating life skills education into public secondary schools (r(20)= 0.779,p<0.05). It follows that the Life Skills Education curriculum cannot be effectively implemented without sufficient teacher training. The study concluded that teachers could perform a better job of teaching life skills if they had better training.
