Water and sanitation facilities in schools are directly linked to the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6; however, these facilities are often grossly inadequate in both quality and quantity in public primary schools (PPS) in developing countries. This study examined the existing water and sanitation facilities in PPS in Oyo State, Nigeria, to identify disparities. Using ANOVA, variables extracted from the 2020 Oyo State Annual School Census report were analyzed and mapped to reveal spatial distribution at the local government level. Five water sources and 4 types of sanitation facilities were identified. Significant variations were observed across local government types (urban, semi-urban & rural, and rural) with respect to enrollment ( = .000), total number of toilets ( = .033), PPS with wells ( = .002), PPS with no water source ( = .001), PPS with flush toilets ( = .001), and PPS with other toilet types ( = .011). With sanitation facility availability below 20%, open defecation is likely to be prevalent in these schools. For the well-being of the pupils and the entire population of the state, the government needs to prioritize the provision of potable drinking water and improved sanitation facilities in PPS, while considering the need for facilities to be gender sensitive.
学校的水和卫生设施与实现可持续发展目标6直接相关;然而,在发展中国家的公立小学(PPS)中,这些设施在质量和数量上往往严重不足。本研究调查了尼日利亚奥约州公立小学现有的水和卫生设施,以找出差异。使用方差分析,对从2020年奥约州年度学校普查报告中提取的变量进行分析并绘制地图,以揭示地方政府层面的空间分布。确定了五种水源和四种卫生设施类型。在地方政府类型(城市、半城市和农村以及农村)之间,在入学人数(=0.000)、厕所总数(=0.033)、有井的公立小学(=0.002)、没有水源的公立小学(=0.001)、有冲水厕所的公立小学(=0.001)以及有其他厕所类型的公立小学(=0.011)方面观察到了显著差异。由于卫生设施的可用性低于20%,这些学校可能普遍存在露天排便现象。为了学生和该州全体人口的福祉,政府需要优先在公立小学提供安全饮用水和改善卫生设施,同时考虑设施对性别敏感的需求。
