Posted by Thandiubani on Wed 25th Sep, 2024 - tori.ng

the revised curriculum, aimed at both primary and secondary schools, is designed to address the ongoing concerns surrounding the behaviour and values of young Nigerians.

 
Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman has revealed that the federal government is planning to introduce a new new school curriculum from October 2024.
 
He stated this after President Bola Tinubu presided over the federal executive council meeting at the presidential Villa.
 
According to him, the revised curriculum, aimed at both primary and secondary schools, is designed to address the ongoing concerns surrounding the behaviour and values of young Nigerians.
 
Mamman said, “There is a general concern about the behaviour and conduct of our young ones in the country and our social values, and civic education is compulsory in secondary schools. But with all that, we still have some deterioration and serious concerns about our national values.

“So we are rolling out a new curriculum for primary schools and secondary schools in Nigeria from this October, which is supposed to incorporate knowledge, skills and values, especially with a special focus on skills, so that our students, when they graduate, they will have skills that they can connect with the economy.”
 
He also announced that the council approved a contract for constructing a new senate building for the University of Ibadan and the cost associated with conducting examinations by the National Examinations Council.

“The University Ibadan, established in 1948, has its first Senate building, which is meant to accommodate tens of offices and principal management of the university.

“You may recall, recently that NECO released the results of the examination it ran for millions of Nigerians. So, the Council today approved the process and the cost associated with that,” the minister explained
