The Vice Chancellor of Plateau State University, Bokkos, Nenfort Gomwalk, has lamented the shortage of qualified lecturers in Nigerian universities.
Mr. Gomwalk said this in an interview on Friday in Jos.
He described the situation “as so terrible” adding that 70 per cent of the lecturers in the nation’s universities were assistant lecturers.
“The fact of the matter is that several Nigerian universities have dearth of PhD holders as lecturers. Most of the lecturers in the nation’s Ivory towers are Masters Degree holders and some of them have spent years pursuing their PhD degrees without success.
[size=15pt]“I am aware that some of the Masters Degree holders have spent 10 to 15 years pursuing their doctorate degrees,” he said.[/size]
The university head noted that the country had no fewer than 150 universities all competing to recruit competent and qualified lecturers from the few available hands.
He said that the situation would worsen with the establishment of nine new universities by the Federal government, and the establishment of more state universities across the country.

http://lagosbooksclub.com/these-are-reasons-why-students-fail-waec-english-examinations/

PREAMBLE :

In this write-up, ‘’English’’ means English Language. Examination bodies refer to WAEC and NECO, while the main syllabus format relates more to WAEC.

1.MASS FAILURE IN ENGLISH:

Available statistics from WAEC show that the percentage of student non-performers (those with grades D7 to F9) are usually more than 75% of the total examination candidates each year. The situation is so bad, that experts now feel that the level of English usage by our SSCE candidates suggest that English is a foreign language in Nigeria and not a second language.

2.IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH:

As a second language in Nigeria, English is important because it forms a bridge across our various local and indigenous languages. It also serves as a vehicle of mutual understanding within a neutral environment of ethnic and linguistic plurality. English is a mandatory subject that all students must pass for validation of their senior certificate exams. Passing all subjects except English, renders the examination void as many courses in higher institutions need more than a simple ‘Pass’ in English for admission.

3.FACTORS/REASONS RESPONSIBLE FOR FAILURE:

So what could be the reason(s) for the ‘systemic’ failure that seems to have become fashionable? We may attempt to list some reasons below, but it seems from the comments of examination bodies that the problems are traceable to schools, teachers, peer groups, parents, and recently, the internet and the intensely popular e-mails and phone texting.

4.SCHOOLS:

It has been noticed that many schools pay only lip service to the study of English. For instance, hardly can one find in majority of secondary schools, any programme deliberately designed to make students really appreciate and live for English as expected. Apart from badly arranged time-tables and tutors with only paper qualifications, the co-curricula activities arranged to promote the subject, hardly scratch the surface of the objective. Furthermore, deliberate efforts are not made to discourage “PIDGIN English”, which has become too common, even among children from homes with high incomes and living standards. In our universities, “PIDGIN” is actually the LINGUA FRANCA and the roots for this can easily be traced back to secondary schools. Schools need to wage some war on what is called “PIDGIN” because it has become a huge phenomenon for many anti-social acts including cultism in higher institutions. Today’s Nigerian student is exposed to different types of pidgin from home-grown pidgin, to the pidgin used in American films and west indian pidgin music, which could blur the lines between the proper terms of English if not correctly guided by his or her school.In addition, there is no emphasis on the oral aspect of the language or a simple corner or board created for pasting English-related articles to whip up the interest of students in the subject. Many schools do not have English indoctrinating materials to build up orientation or a culture of good English. What exists in most schools is the over flogging of schemes of work and past examination papers. There is nothing to aid students in the practical application of the subject from the perspective of being a contributory factor for the much talked about “All round education”.

5.TEACHERS:

From experience, teachers seem to be the major problem. Many tutors do not teach English to inspire their students to make proper use of it or make any effort at self-improvement after school hours or away from the classrooms. English is a living subject which reflects the quality of education a student has received at any point in life. Since most students here learn the culture of reading or self-study, every good English teacher must appreciate the need to reformat his or her methods for motivating students. Unfortunately, many teachers, after attaining the pinnacle of self-improvement, display a general lack of awareness of, or enthusiasm for solving the current problems of each of their students. They also seem disinterested in the strategic imperatives required to inspire the interest of these students.

6.PEER GROUPS,PARENTS & SOCIETY:

Peer groups, parents and the society generally make students fail English exams by encouraging the use of “PIDGIN”. Whereas the WAEC schemes of work is based on what may be termed “Queen’s English”. Pidgin language is counter-productive to the efforts of English teachers in grammar and phonology e.g. “I dey come” instead of “I’ll be back”, “dem” instead of “them”or “sontin” instead of “something”. Please see our more detailed write-up on Pidgin and use by our students. It has become so bad such that an SS3 student recently begged the Lagos State House of Assembly to be allowed to discuss with the gathering in pidgin!

7.THE INTERNET:

The internet, whose popularity and usage has loomed large, has not been helpful either. This is because of its corner-cutting format of English for speed during communication. In the process, a lot of grammatical and punctuation rules are broken, yet regarded as acceptable or web-friendly. With the enormous leaps and strides being made by “web-english”,and the unavoidable relevance of the internet to the lives and education of our students, it is likely that we are witnessing the dawning revolution of spoken and written English. This may eventually change the future structure of examinations too. Suffice to say however, that the pervading influences of the internet and other sources of mass communication is not very helpful for now.

8.CONCLUSION:

Having noted that many students these days want to be spoon-fed, we have developed more write-ups to either boost or point out likely errors to fill-in the gaps created by the problems listed above. And while many students prefer easy study gadgets( such as “Exam Focus”, “Round Up” or “Key points for Examination Preparation”), there are still other steps which can be taken to encourage their quest for knowledge.We intend to itemize these through write-ups on this forum from time to time.

http://www.citizensadvocatenews.com/index.php/columns/dragnet/330-when-waec-blacklists-like-this-it-insults-us-too

The rapid unemployment in the country has turned every unemployed graduates and their undergraduate into mercenaries, using period of exams to eke out living. Most at times, these mercenaries are not better than those they come to help. The system is such that getting mercenaries has ceased to make any difference as everybody is the same. The introduction of Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) does not help matters either. Taking electronic materials into examination hall has become a common place but it is amazing that students don’t even know the correct spelling of words because social sites have corrupted their spelling abilities. Girls who take advantage of fleshes at their proper places to hide materials have also tale of bitterness. For how long will calculate or handset set in human sacred areas with their health implications? The misconducts are everywhere because they are signs of confusion.

The misconducts rather than vilify students indict bodies responsible for learning of wrongdoing. Let us look at our learning system, the factories that bake students. One is as good as the system that formed him/her. Nigeria’s learning environments and all their methods and equipment are entirely wrong, far from standards. How can one stay in three years in secondary school with neither English nor mathematics teacher? Make-belief laboratories are set up only during exams after students have been painfully taxed. The school with no sitting arrangement tries to do that during exams. Every method we see in our school is a step to ignorance.

NaijaPikinGidi: I wonder when the word "broken" began to have different meanings based on "standards". It that case since our educational standards in Nigeria are far higher than what you have in South Africa ... we must then add "totally broken" to Sizwe's article or Bekezela Phakathi's report for total impact! You claim South Africans don't have to do foundation courses, yet less than two (2%) percent of South African applicants ever qualify to enrol in UK Universities.

[size=16pt]Outsourcing plan proposed for SA’s public schools[/size]
by Bekezela Phakathi, 07 August 2013, 05:50


SOUTH Africa should outsource the management of its public schools to private operators in order to tackle the failing education system, the Centre for Development and Enterprise (CDE) said on Wednesday.

South Africa’s education system has been roundly criticised in recent years, even though the government has been spending liberally on the sector.

The World Economic Forum Global Information Technology report, released this year, ranked the quality of South Africa’s education system 140th out of 144 countries. It ranked SA’s maths and science education second last in the world — ahead only of Yemen.

The CDE on Wednesday released a new research report which, among other things, proposes the greater involvement of the private sector in running public schools. It says the contract school concept constitutes a new kind of partnership.

"Government provides funding, support and clearly defined goals, while the private providers introduce innovative ways of delivering schooling to lift the quality of education in the public sector, particularly that available to the poor. It makes school managers accountable for performance."

"Contract schools" were often established in underserved, disadvantaged and poor communities. They expanded choice and improved access to quality education for poor people.

"South Africa’s efforts to reform schooling have had an unnecessarily narrow focus, largely ignoring an international trend of importance, especially for poorer communities," Ann Bernstein, the executive director of the CDE, said on Wednesday. Across the world the provision of schools was being diversified and decentralised and new partnerships were formed. "These schools are labelled differently. Charter schools, concession schools, academies, but all involve a contract between the state and private actors."

The CDE said such schools existed in more than 20 countries, according to the World Bank.

The CDE report focuses on US charter schools, Britain’s academy school programme and similar Swedish reforms. In the developing world it examines initiatives in Venezuela, Peru, Colombia and Pakistan.

"Contract schools are an opportunity for governments and parents to tap into private expertise and hold it to account." Ms Bernstein said.

No need to even read your long-winded garbage. Trying to deflect attention from the real issue.

You've been told that South African standards aren't Naai-gerian standards. When we say "broken", we mean "not good" enough. That's why we dominate the top 100 schools list in Africa. That's why we don't have to do foundation courses in the UK. Plus we have a healthy private education system.

With that, back to the news of the day:

2011.


http://www.wazobiareport.com/reports/WAEC-mass-failure-Fake-leaked-papers-to-blame

Lagos - The mass failure of students who took the May/June 2011 West African School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) has been blamed on, amongst other thing; the inability of students to focus, their fear of mathematics, and even the boom of the Blackberry messenger culture.

Wrong.

Serious investigative journalism has now led to the true reason only 31 percent of students who sat for the examination managed to pass.

Based in a tip-off, a ring of unscrupulous hoodlums dealing in leaked exam papers has been uncovered.

http://sunnewsonline.com/new/cover/waec-blacklists-113-schools-over-exams-fraud/

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has withdrawn recognition for 113 secondary schools nationwide, as punishment for examination malpractices. Also, results of 30, 654 candidates, who sat for the May/June 2012 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) have been cancelled. According to Saturday Sun findings, WAEC has also cancelled individual subject results of 83, 745 candidates, released the results of 1, 549 and barred for two years 3, 321 candidates from sitting for the council examination over misconduct during the school exam, in line with the rules and regulations guiding the conduct of the examination.

The cancelled results were among the 112, 000 results of candidates withheld for their involvement in examination malpractice out of 1, 695, 878 candidates that sat for the May/June 2012 WASSCE. Only 38.81 per cent (649, 156) of the total candidates that sat for the May/June 2012 WASSCE obtained five credits in English Language, Mathematics and three other subjects, thus were qualified for admissions into universities and polytechnics.

The Nigeria Examinations Committee (NEC) of the council took the far-reaching decisions in Lagos after it deliberated on evidences (exhibits) produced by the council, which were seized from some candidates involved in examination malpractice. Other decisions taken by NEC include recommendation for sanctions against 97 supervisors/principals/other examination personnel identified and reported to their various state ministries of education, while 21 supervisors also indicted were blacklisted.

The WAEC committee also recommended that 465 secondary schools be warned for aiding and abetting examination malpractice during the 2012 May/June WASSCE, granted clemency to eight candidates even as the certificates of 12 others were withdrawn after they asked for restitution. The NEC, which was chaired by the Director of Basic and Secondary Education), Ministry of Education, Abuja, directed that the allegations against 930 candidates be further investigated, while their results are withheld.

Also, the council withdrew the recognition of six schools and commended one staff. A breakdown of schools sanctioned nationwide revealed that majority came from the South-South, followed by those from the North, South East and South West. Government-owned schools top the list of those involved in exam fraud. The NEC recommendation shows that recognition for 21 schools were withdrawn for two years. Also, recognition for 43 others were withdrawn, along side the principals of the schools.

Saturday Sun learnt that the council has communicated the decisions of NEC to the state ministries of education, which is expected to take action against the schools and principals indicted by WAEC.

The West African Examination Board-WAEC, has out of consideration following the intervention by various governmental and non-governmental bodies decided to upgrade the scores of candidates who participated in her 2011/2012 May/June WASSCE across West Africa.

This unbelievable, but yet welcomed upgrade of scores is the first of it’s kind by the Examination Board (WAEC). This upgrade could be seen as a solution from above to prayers of Nigerians. It was gathered according to WAEC report, that Nigeria recorded the worst performance across West Africa.

NO WAYS!!! If you cannot make six credits (Mathematics and English being compulsary) you will have to study harder and better to retake the exams till you eventually pass!!! No shortcuts, no middle grounds like in your South Africa that reduces its matric passmark to 33% mainly to give majority of your dullard South Africans a false sense of academic competence!!

You can comb the internet all you want ... Nigeria will not compromise education and assessment standards/benchmarks just for senseless statistical ratings!! A person must score 50% and above to earn the least Credit score ... just as 49% will continue to be adjudged a FAIL in Nigeria until Jesus Christ returns!

YET ANOTHER MASS WAEC FAILURE

10 Jan 2013
Font Size: a / A
It’s time to declare a state of emergency in the educational sector

It is now a recurring decade-old national embarrassment, that the Nigerian National Office of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) will release the results for its November/December West African Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) showing mass failure rate. The results for this year show that out of a total of 406,108 candidates who sat for the examinations, and whose results were processed, only 62,295 candidates obtained credits in English language, Mathematics and at least three other subjects.

This represents an 80 percent failure rate, in terms of meeting the minimum performance requirement for candidates to be deemed to have passed the SSCE examinations.

It is possible to speak of marginal improvements in the results when compared with that of 2010 and 2011, but a student who improves from 16 to 20 percent in an examination has still performed woefully. The products of the Nigerian educational system have consistently performed below par in all competitive examinations, suggesting that there is something fundamentally wrong with the system. While we admit that the situation is emblematic of poor academic standards, we also note that an environment that consistently churns out illiterate young boys and girls, all of them presumably leaders of tomorrow, must be saddled with more than just a dysfunctional educational system.

The inspectorate function of the Federal Ministry of Education should be interrogated on teacher quality, content and learning outcomes. T[b]he so-called Unity Schools, regarded as centres of excellence, do not parade better results than many village schools all over the country. Over the years, summits upon summits have been called by many officials but they have been doing that with obviously the wrong conceptual framework and working tools.[/b]
Those in authority at all levels have only been paying lip service to the improvement of public education system, while the advent of highly expensive and difficult-to-afford private schools (at all levels) has effectively sealed the fate of poorly funded public schools. It is mostly unqualified (and distracted) teaching staff that populate them, with trade union disputes and trading taking the place of teaching and learning.

We therefore maintain our earlier call that government should declare a state of emergency in education, via concrete actions that must include a review of the roles(s) of the Federal Ministry of Education, and its agencies. Too much of the education budget goes into procurements and overheads. A review of the budget of the Ministry and its agencies over the last 12 years suggests repeated and often avoidable expenditures where pooling and the attendant economies of scale will make all the difference.

The capacity of teachers at all levels should be improved, through training and retraining; and their working conditions upgraded.

The 2012 SSCE results is not just an indictment of secondary school education in Nigeria.

The government can begin by ascertaining what has not been done with its own extant road map, which is being played down by seminar and conference mongers, who drain the till with nothing to show for it.

NaijaPikinGidi: And how many Black South Africans are able to afford $10,000 per year without rendering his/her immediate and future family lineage bankrupt and permanently poverty stricken? How many graduate South Africans have paid up their education loans several years after graduation? We can go further on this debate if you wish!!

We have TEFSA in South Africa. Read about that and go home.

You defeated no one. It won't go away idïot. Look at the source that YOU volunteered as credible.

Is this what you want to be proud of?

Different year

You are a 98% failure rate nation. There's nothing that you can say to erase that. It's a proud achievement of your people.

[size=15pt]98%[/size].

Is this denied or not? Yes or no.

The 80% failure rate last year as contained on your own source. Is it denied or not? Yes or no.

YET ANOTHER MASS WAEC FAILURE

10 Jan 2013
Font Size: a / A
It’s time to declare a state of emergency in the educational sector

It is now a recurring decade-old national embarrassment, that the Nigerian National Office of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) will release the results for its November/December West African Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) showing mass failure rate. The results for this year show that out of a total of 406,108 candidates who sat for the examinations, and whose results were processed, only 62,295 candidates obtained credits in English language, Mathematics and at least three other subjects. This represents an 80 percent failure rate, in terms of meeting the minimum performance requirement for candidates to be deemed to have passed the SSCE examinations.

It is possible to speak of marginal improvements in the results when compared with that of 2010 and 2011, but a student who improves from 16 to 20 percent in an examination has still performed woefully. The products of the Nigerian educational system have consistently performed below par in all competitive examinations, suggesting that there is something fundamentally wrong with the system. While we admit that the situation is emblematic of poor academic standards, we also note that an environment that consistently churns out illiterate young boys and girls, all of them presumably leaders of tomorrow, must be saddled with more than just a dysfunctional educational system.

The inspectorate function of the Federal Ministry of Education should be interrogated on teacher quality, content and learning outcomes. The so-called Unity Schools, regarded as centres of excellence, do not parade better results than many village schools all over the country. Over the years, summits upon summits have been called by many officials but they have been doing that with obviously the wrong conceptual framework and working tools.
Those in authority at all levels have only been paying lip service to the improvement of public education system, while the advent of highly expensive and difficult-to-afford private schools (at all levels) has effectively sealed the fate of poorly funded public schools. It is mostly unqualified (and distracted) teaching staff that populate them, with trade union disputes and trading taking the place of teaching and learning.

We therefore maintain our earlier call that government should declare a state of emergency in education, via concrete actions that must include a review of the roles(s) of the Federal Ministry of Education, and its agencies. Too much of the education budget goes into procurements and overheads. A review of the budget of the Ministry and its agencies over the last 12 years suggests repeated and often avoidable expenditures where pooling and the attendant economies of scale will make all the difference.

The capacity of teachers at all levels should be improved, through training and retraining; and their working conditions upgraded. The schools themselves must be equipped to meet basic standards to adequately prepare students, especially in the sciences; but that should be after detailed inventory of how often government has budgeted and spent money for the same needs in recent times. Unless something drastic is done, and urgently too, the future of the nation's human capital will be irreversibly compromised.

The more you deny it, the more embarrassing if is for you. You think I'm a banana that you can sit in your monkey tree and eat?

This is the education system that you come from. You think you can lie to us and tell us you're in the US? Rubbish. We all know you're in Lagos, being useless. You're already been exposed.

Anyway, here: read it and weep. Ask for more. I dare you.

agaugust: thats your source ? an unidentified webpage posted by an unidentified writer who has an unidentified statistical source .

shows how poor south african education is and how much it has reduced your brains to a 33% standard.

here is the real nigerian WAEC statistics from WAEC itself released to the public and published in national newspapers, with a confirmation of the strict requirement of passes in 5 subjects including mathematics and english language.

we dont allow people to pass with 33% scores in nigeria. we send them back to the classroom if they dont meet the strict target.

80% fail WAEC including those who passed 4 subjects including english and mathematics, they are called failures asked to repeat the exam and get 5 subjects passed compulsorily and must still include english and mathematics.

fool ! big fool !

agaugust: quote your credible source for that 98% false figure or shut up.

nigerian WAEC standards are the highest in africa. candidates must score over 50% mark in mathematics, english, and 3 other subjects or else they are said to fail and will repeat the tough exams which are a little higher in standard than many europeans countries and america.

we nigerians who pass WAEC exams go all over the world and defeat every other human being in academic stuff.

why do the south africans here run away when i ask them to solve elementary mathematical calculations of junior secondary school level ?

fool !

What content? As backed up by which stats? As recognised by which organisation? You posted the pictures. Now that they are disputed, you want to server them from the report that accompanies them? You are a monkey and you should not be taken seriously.

Now, once you are done foaming in the mouth, I repeat my request:

Please show me that South Africa also has a religious-ethnic war, like Nigeria has. A religious-ethnic war that is officially recognised. Not this dream you want to feed us.

blackchris: like you, south africans are famous for lying to themselves except for a few that are speaking up against the ongoing silent genocide.

Whites Murdered by Blacks

Since 1994, more than 60000 (if not 60000, I apologize profusely and you can replace the number with 'a shitload' - these numbers come from various other sites - and they have increased since I wrote this article - Google 'muldersdrift') white South Africans have been murdered of which more than 4000 were commercial farmers. Exact figures are very hard to come by as the South African police fail to report most of the murders that take place. There is also no distinction between white and black victims in crime records.


abeg this whole thing has got me emotional. *sobs*
You've just confirmed yourself an idîot.

We South Africans know all about these websites. We laugh because they are cooked. Have a look here, to see where that comes from.

Please, show me that South Africa has an ethnic-religious war too.

has CraigB become so desperate? grin grin

about the same ish happening in SA

The main ingredient of genocide - HATE SPEECH:

Genocide has to come from somewhere. People won't just go out and start killing people because they feel disadvantaged or because of a wage dispute. They need to be called to action.

The world is turning a blind eye to the hate that drips from the ANC's lips. The ex-ANC Youth League President, Julius Malema, defied a court ruling that banned the ANC from singing "Kill the Boer" just hours after he left court. The courts are run by "racist whites" according to the ANC Youth League and they don't have any respect for any ruling unless it is in their favor.

abeg am done with all this talk. it's making me cry for you CrabB. oh i forgot, you'll be granted asylum in either UK, Australia or Netherlands grin grin grin
A genocide that's not recognised anywhere? You clearly aren't educated and have turned yourself into a joke, with your weak posts. We laugh at "genocide" South Africans.

SMH.

Now here's a recognised issue:

blackchris: desperado grin grin grin

On 18 June 2012, Lamola told ANCYL members that "Land reform needs an act as forceful as war" and that it was an illusion that land would be given back to black South Africans "peacefully".

A few hours after Lamola called for war... a 77-year old farmer is murdered in Limpopo.
This time, American tourists found the deceased farmer and his critically injured wife. So we all hope that the Americans will go home and tell the world what is happening in the "Rainbow Nation".


there's a silent racial war going on in SA.. CrabB on my mind.. "shoot the Boer" grin
Show us the civil war, will you?

I don't see it.


huh
