School climates indices as predictors of teacher job satisfaction and performance in Oyo State of Nigeria were investigated in this study. The school climate indices include; school laboratories, libraries, classrooms and instructional materials. This was a descriptive survey research which was questionnaire based. The population of the study was all public secondary school teachers in Oyo State, Nigeria. Multi-stage using cluster and simple random sampling techniques to select a total of one thousand and five hundred (1500) teachers (male and female) from the selected public secondary schools for the study. Three research questions and six hypotheses were postulated. Hypotheses were tested at 5% level of significance. The data collected for the study were analyzed using descriptive analysis, Multiple Regression analysis, MANOVA, Pearson Product Moment Correlation and t-test. Among others, the study revealed that the level of teachers’ job satisfaction was lower than the performance with the overall weighted average of 2.380 and 2.702 respectively. Only 11.7% public secondary schools in Oyo State, Nigeria were able to meet up with the UNESCO recommended student-teacher ratio. Also, there exist a significant combined influence of school climate indices on the teachers’ job satisfaction and performance (F=11.919; P<0.05). As a result of the findings, it was recommended that government should allocate sufficient fund in the budget for the provision of instructional materials, modern libraries, and well equipped laboratories to create a good school climate in public secondary schools. Also, the suggested UNESCO student-teacher ratio should be adhering to.
