The junior and senior secondary schools represent one important facet in the 26333 curriculum. They will expose the learner to a broad based curriculum to enable them to explore their own abilities, personality and potential as a basis for choosing subjects according to career paths of interest. Of key interest in this paper is the core subject; Sports and Physical Education and optional subjects; Visual Arts, Performing Arts, Home Science, Computer Science and Foreign Languages in which learners are provided with an opportunity to choose according to abilities, interests and career choices. Hitherto the new curriculum, various challenges pose a profound threat to the 26333 education system. Key among them is the infrastructure of schools that is not well established in the secondary schools that will be essential in identification of talent among learners through the subjects mentioned. This implies that some students will miss out on their career progression due to low quality services unless necessary interventions are made. This paper therefore set out to examine whether the school infrastructural system supports development of students varied abilities and to make recommendations on appropriate ways of developing various students’ abilities. Survey research design was used. The stratified and proportionate sampling was used to select 14 schools. Respondents included 14 head teachers. Interview schedules, library methods and observation schedules were used to get information. The findings established that the schools had inadequate infrastructure. It is recommended that, school administration should strive to partner with different stakeholders to develop infrastructure to enhance students’ participation.
