<p>The study examined the frequency of supervision of the basic schools by the Ondo state Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) in line with the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) policies in Ondo state. It investigated the extent of provision and moderation of the school curriculum by the SUBEB in the study area. These were with a view to determining the extent of compliance with the quality assurance policies of the UBEC by the Ondo SUBEB. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. The population for the study included 1,341 headteachers and 4,361 teachers in public primary schools and 305 principals and 3,192 teachers in public junior secondary schools in Ondo State. The sample for the study was 330 respondents, which included 24 headteachers and 240 teachers in public primary schools and six principals and 60 teachers in junior secondary schools, which were selected through the multistage sampling technique. A self-developed questionnaire titled Assessment of Quality Assurance Policies Questionnaire (AQAPQ) was used. Data collected were analysed using frequency counts, percentages and the mean. The result showed that the frequency of supervision of the basic schools by the Ondo SUBEB in line with UBEC policies was moderate (X ̅ = 3.71). The result also showed that the extent of provision and moderation of the school curriculum in the state was moderate (X ̅ = 3.56).

<p>This study examines sustainable procurement practices and their impact on supply chain performance, with the objective of evaluating the influence of sustainable procurement on specific performance indicators, particularly cost efficiency. A survey was conducted among 50 firms in Adamawa State using a structured questionnaire, and the data were analyzed employing descriptive statistics, correlation matrix, regression analysis, and ANOVA. The results revealed a consistent positive relationship between cost efficiency, supplier reliability, risk mitigation, and environmental compliance, with these relationships exerting a statistically significant effect. The ANOVA confirmed that the variance in supply chain performance is statistically attributable to the model, while Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.995 demonstrated excellent internal consistency. Based on these findings, it is recommended that firms seeking to enhance supply chain performance through sustainable procurement should integrate robust risk management strategies that proactively identify and address environmental, regulatory, and operational risks.</p>
