Giving education back to the Educators.

Teachers, especially private teachers give one of the best contributions to the society. They are the hope of the society to revive and sustain morals. Yet for strange reasons, they have remained poor, timid and voiceless.

This has had a negative impact on the society as many people who come into private teaching, do so as a temporary job until they get their dream jobs. Hence education in the basic level has been left in the hands of Private schools (not all Private Schools are bad) who are interested in cheap labour and Private Teachers ( not all private teachers are unqualified) who are unqualified, emotionless and unwilling to sustain education.

This has led our children who are expected to look up to teachers, to see no aura of dignity and passion in these teachers. Hence these children have turned to immoral icons as models. Hence the huge trace of immorality amongst our children.

However education remains the hope for Parents, children and the society that are in search of a strong moral pillar to hold the society. This is why we have launched the National Association for Private Teachers to demand that only professionals teachers are employed and that Private Schools are mandated to pay teachers well and provide teachers a platform to grow in education.

This may not be easy, as so many Private Schools are in education only to make profit, as COVID 19 showed (Just 6 months of academics interruption, and many schools quickly stopped paying salaries of teachers, giving pretentious excuses instead).

No well meaning Nigerian is happy with the way Private Teachers are treated by Schools and the society, yet instead of finding a solution to the pillar of education, we just make this serious conversation pass us by.

The time is now to save education, the time is now to save our children and the time is now to help private teachers grow. This is a fight that can be won through collaboration between good schools, Parents and the government.

It is time to give education back to the Educators.

Please share this so that the society knows that teachers are not being treated well.

Also, you can join our group and support our movement as we try to fix education.
