Summary/Abstract: This study investigated the Role of Business Subject Teachers in Promoting Entrepreneurial Skills among Secondary School Students in Awka South L.G.A of Anambra State. A descriptive research design was adopted, with a population comprising 80 Business Subject Teachers from 19 public secondary schools in Awka South Local Government Area. A sample of 67 respondents was selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected using a 16-item structured questionnaire titled “Role of Business Subject Teachers in Promoting Entrepreneurial Skills among Secondary School Students Questionnaire (RBSTPESSSSQ)” and analyzed using mean scores. The findings revealed that business subject teachers can enhance students’ knowledge of effective technical writing techniques and identify necessary technological software to meet new business trends. Additionally, business subject teachers assist students in developing interpersonal skills and financial literacy to avoid impulse buying. The study recommends adequate funding of business studies subjects by stakeholders at all levels and emphasizes the importance of procurement of requisite teaching materials.
