  ABSTRACT: This research is an optimal allocation of assignment schedule in science subjects. Two methods of assignment problem were used, namely; the Hungarian method (Algorithm) and Linear interactive & discrete optimization (LINGO) technique. The results from both methods yielded the same optimal outcome. It reveals that the total minimum opportunity that will maximize the educational quality is 84 and the total maximum effectiveness that will maximize the educational quality is 416. Therefore, we recommend to the school management to adopt these methods in staff-subject allocation schedule to science, management and arts subjects for optimal benefits. Accordingly, the government should also apply the findings of this research to other schools.
