The schools were selected from the local governments areas and some of them tagged the experimental group, those schools where the teachers were selected for training. The control group, were made up of those schools which were not exposed to the training. 377 teachers were exposed to the training intervention which was to teach them how to break the barriers to learning, how to encourage students to grasp subject matter in any subject. The results of students in the experimental group were later compared to those whose teachers were not exposed to the training and significant result was noted.
