This study assessed the extent of availability and adequacy of infrastructural facilities and equipment for the teaching of physical education (PE) component of the Basic Science and Technology in junior secondary schools in Edo State. Two research questions were raised to guide the study. The descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study. The population of the study consists of three hundred and ninety-five teachers (78 PE teachers and all 317 head teachers) of public junior secondary schools in Edo State. The sample size of this study was one hundred and sixty teachers (70 PE teachers and 90 head teachers) in public junior secondary schools in Edo State. A multi-stage sampling procedure was adopted to select the sample for the study. A checklist was employed as a research instrument and validated using Cronbach’s Alpha statistics with a coefficient value of 0.72. The data collected were analysed using the descriptive statistics of frequency count, percentage, mean and standard deviation. The findings of the study showed that most infrastructural facilities and equipment for the teaching of physical education component of the Basic Science and Technology are not available, adequate or functional. It was concluded that the implementation of the PE component of the Basic Science and Technology curriculum seems to be facing some problems in the areas of having adequate facilities and equipment, professionally qualified teachers, better in-service training for teachers, students' attitudes among others. It was therefore recommended that adequate facilities and equipment used in the physical education component of Basic Science and Technology should be made available and seen to be functional in schools.
