259 teachers score zero in Pry 4 exams Yekini Jimoh, Ilorin - 25.11.2008 THE Kwara State Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Alhaji Bolaji Abdullahi, has said that about 259 teachers in the state who sat for Primary Four examinations scored zero in the test. He made this known during a stakeholders’ meeting in Ilorin at the weekend, pointing out that only seven out of 19,125 teachers met the minimum knowledge and capability threshold. “Although 2,628 of the teachers hold university degrees, only one of them achieved the threshold, while 10 others were among those who scored zero in the test. “In this part of the assessment, we gave teachers a test paper in reading and Mathematics that has been completed by a primary four pupil and the teachers were asked to mark the paper,” he said. The key part of the assessment had the teachers tested in English and Mathematics question papers originally designed for primary four pupils. The commissioner, who presented the report to the stakeholders, said he was depressed by the findings, but reasoned that the dismal performance of the teachers who teach in public schools was the outcome of a long period of systemic failure. http://www.tribune.com.ng/25112008/news/news9.html |

Too bad. But please stop generalizing. Kwara is not that bad, educationally. We may not be in the same class with Ogun,Ondo or Ekiti, but I'm sure we are close to Oyo state in terms of educational advancement. *osisi:Mr man, sharrap. Kwara has never been part of the agitation to secede. Kwara is almost as South as Osun. |

I am not surprise.Majority of the young and New Teachers we are having today are not called into it.Teaching is a vocation not profession.It is not a shelter for the unemployed.Some see it as the easiest job opportunity because of the increase number of schools today.Let the school owners take this into consideration when selecting their Teachers.Kwara State case is an eye opener to Nigeria Ministry of education.Other states should emulate.
