Education is a set of practical techniques for the instructions given in schools, colleagues and universities for the purpose of preparing learners to become useful to their selves and the society at large (NTI 2001)
Okonkwo (2003) was of the opinion that education leads on individuals to a fuller self-discovery and manifestation. He also stated that education is for life and living. That what makes a man to live and function is the concern for education, which is a means to life objectives. It is a common knowledge that for any nation to develop or grow positively adequate considerations must be given to the provision of education of her citizen.
It is in light of those contributions of education to the economy of a state, a nation and little of her citizen that the federal government of Nigeria from past till date has mounted various educational programmers.
      Evaluating the basic educational needs in Imo state such factors like sound tends liberties, locations of the school, transportations of the students whose houses are located faraway from the school in Imo State and the cost of admission into all strategies of education in the state should be taken care of.
