Abstract: Strategic management in education plays a critical role in optimizing teaching and learning materials (TLMs) to enhance educational outcomes. This study explores teachers’ perceptions of TLMs in mathematics education within Ghana, emphasizing their availability, relevance, and utilization. It highlights the intersection between resource management and strategic planning, offering insights into how TLMs can be leveraged to improve instructional quality and student engagement. The purpose of this study is to examine these perceptions, identify systemic challenges, and propose strategies for aligning TLM usage with educational objectives. A systematic literature review was employed to synthesize existing research, uncovering themes related to resource disparities, teacher training gaps, and the role of TLMs in shaping educational practices. Findings emphasize the need for equitable resource distribution, teacher capacity building, and collaborative efforts to integrate TLMs effectively. This study underscores the potential of strategic management to transform mathematics education, providing actionable recommendations for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders.
