The study also revealed that 33.3 percent of the teachers were highly motivated with the principals" practices of instructional supervision task, 43.2 percent were moderately motivated with 23.4 were lowly motivated. It was also revealed that teachers were motivated by with the principals" practice on decision making. Based on the findings the study concluded teachers were motivated with the planning tasks. Teachers were motivated with the principals" decision making task with which teachers were motivated. The study recommended that principals should perform their planning task always and not sometimes as indicated by the study. The study therefore recommends that principals should perform the organisational leadership always so that teachers" work performance can be improved. The study therefore recommends that principals should practice the delegation task always rather than sometimes as this would increase teachers" work performance. The study also recommends that the principals should perform instructional supervision and decision making tasks always rather than sometimes so as to improve teachers" work performance. Taking the limitations and delimitations of the study the researcher suggested that since the study was carried out in administrative Mainland L.G.A, Lagos state, a similar study should be conducted in other arears so that to compare the results. Since the study focussed on selected administrative tasks the study suggests that a study on other administrative tasks should be carried out to establish whether the tasks would have an influence of teacher"s motivation.
