This survey of primary school teachers in Delta State of Nigeria, was undertaken to evolve actionable strategies for providing solution to corruption in the primary school system. Three research questions were drawn up to establish the opinions of the respondents (teachers) on ways to achieve a corruption-free primary education, tackle fraud in the schools and institutionalise transparency and accountability in them. The data obtained from open-ended questionnaires administered on primary school teachers showed that among several opinions, the provision of adequate school facilities, care for the welfare of teachers, combating of examination malpractices, reward for good behaviour and hard work and punishment for established cases of corruption, were suggested by them. Other suggestions include expanding the provision of modern school infrastructure and equipment which should be securely protected by host communities, appointment of internal and external auditors to check school account records regularly, were offered. Committees made up of local government officials as well as Parents-Teachers Association (PTA) should equally be set up to tackle all forms of malpractices in the schools.
