This study uses a quantitative design and survey method using a questionnaire instrument distributed to 500 respondents who served in 13 secondary schools selected using cluster and simple random sampling. The data of this study were analysed using descriptive statistics involving mean calculation and inferential statistic involving one-way ANOVA. The study findings showed that the mean reading for all three aspects of learning organisation practices for human resources serving in excellent category schools is higher than that of human resources serving in good and satisfactory category schools.
