The status of facilities, management for the experiment, practices, teaching methods in middle schools have been investigated. The present status and reasonable management of the middle school science education have been grasped from the questionnaires. To do this 125 secondary science teachers, 1,745 students and 70 principals of schools in Korea are administered questionnaires of Science Education Research Institute of Kyungpook National University(1996). The results of this study are as follows : The reasonable management for experiments and practices of science education were scanty in the middle school around the urban and rural school owing to the shortage of facilities and equipments, crowded class, excessive class works for teacher, excessive contents of present textbooks and insufficiency of the administrative supports etc. The current teaching method of middle school science has emphasized knowledge. This fact does not satisfy the objective of learning due to lack of the teaching method. Desirable directions for the improvement of present status of middle school science education were proposed in this paper.
