The study aimed at assessing factors that influence the utilisation of teaching time allocated to primary schools, how distortions in the allocated time affect teaching curriculum, and measures in place to ensure that instructional time is efficiently utilised in schools within the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis. Descriptive research design was adopted for the study. Stratified sampling procedure was used to sample 63 respondents. Questionnaire and observation guide were used as instruments for collecting data. SPSS version 17 and Microsoft Excel 2007 Edition were used to analyse the data. Descriptive statistics, chi square and one sample t-test were used to describe the data. The study found that there was poor regulation of time in the activities of the schools. Factors influencing the utilisation of allocated times to schools included teacher and student absenteeism, teacher and student lateness, inadequate teaching and learning materials, and driving away of animals on school compounds. These have contributed to reduce both the quality and quantity of time used for academic activities.
