Are we gonna convert all primary school buildings to secondary schools, to complement our existing secondary schools because I feel that 12 years would not be interrupted.

Gbam! Grade 1 - 12


PS: I witnessed this very type of Grade 1-12 system when i worked in an European country as an English teacher.. I tell you its truly a brilliant system, allows students to fully develop academically and hands-on skills.

I was greatly impressed.

One of the joys of school was moving from one class to another, and eventually from one school location to another after some time. Having to spend 12 years of my youth in one place sounds like prison to me.

Our education system should give compulsory room for vocational training, tech skills etc. The world is changing and our educational system should be adjusted to fit into the new world. Let's do away wit our archaic and precolonial system of education.

The future is tech. AI is taking over. Acquiring a tech skills should be a must in our educational system.

Years back I had to talk some sense into my young bro who wanted to study mechanical engineering " the same course I graduated wit but nothing to show for it and I had to switch profession". I told him to go for software engineering or cyber security. After all the argument he took my advice and now a graduate of computer engineering from FUTMINNA and his his doing so well for himself and the family.

After chopping books like Engineering Drawing with Worked Examples, by F. Pickup and M.A. Parker, and graduating wit a 2.1, I still ended up changing profession.

Changing profession is nothing new. Everyone must not be in the ICT industry. There are those that studied mechanical engineering and are doing well. Technology and knowledge change. They key is be the best in what you choose to do.

Not quite. Even the American K-12 school system is divided into Elementary (Pre-K to Grade 5), Middle 6 - 8; and High Schools (9-12)

It's not a single continuum of 12 years, and students often attend different schools at each level.

It's even more like what we are currently practicing (6-3-3)

This is actually an adaptation of the American system. Nothing wrong with it.

Dear Mommy and Daddies, please i have been soliciting for assistance from kind hearted Nigerians on this platform. please I am not a scammer, I can prove everything I say here beyond all doubt! i won't be doing this if only there's a glimmer of hope. please forgive me, but it seems that I have no choice. I'm typing this with tears in my eyes and with a very heavy heart.

It is sold for 18,500 but anything we can lay our hands on is perfectly okay please. Even 1k will go a long way to keep my baby girl alive please. Please my family, am on my knees, I am pleading for assistance to save my daughters life. I beg you in God's name please.. Any well meaning Nigerian whom God has touched their heart to help us, please help us. May the Almighty GOD bless all you lay your fingers on, amen.

PLEASE HELP US SURVIVE THIS AFFLICTION 🙏🏽🙏🏽😢

How much did you get this Seretide inhaler??

Good moves. Tinubu deserves third term after his 2nd tenure. He is really fixing Nigeria after long destruction by successive Military government.
I wonder why Goodluck Jonathan who is an educationist could not bring these reforms Tinubu is implementing that is fixing Nigeria through courageous policies.
I voted Peter Obi but Tinubu deserves my vote in 2027 and possibly we would recommend him for Third term.

The Biggest Problem with the Nigeria education is the poverty of its curriculum and not the system.

Whether 7, 3,3, 3. 6,6, 4. 6,3,3, 4.or 12,4 systems, without total overhaul of the curriculum it end in the same ineffectiveness, that doesn't empower a child.

Adopt the MDG educational system that has proven effective over the years.

There is way iŕ work. The starting age of child in primary school should 4 year like other countries

Which country?

In uk, it's year 1 to 11.

What's the difference 6.3.3 4 and 12.? This yoruba govt and it's yoruba minister are just destabilizing the country

Rubbish. These clueless people are changing irrelevant things to form activity and make u think they are doing something but its a very redundant policy like the others.

How does these improves our educational system. People could still drop out of school at any grade. Does this help the curriculum or provides funding for not dropping out of school? By the time you scrap JSCE exams you reduce the potential of students discovering which of the courses they are good at either science, art or commerce. Or will that be scrapped too? I remember your results were prerequisite to move to any of the 3 sections then.
How is changing the the national anthem helping us and now changing the educational system? All of these emperorish interference , just sacking and changing leadership in all sectors and upturning processes without proper assessment of areas of defect should be resisted and protested against.
Why sack VCs, change university name, change hospitals board, sack management everywhere in all parastatals without any meaningful intervention? Is everything politics ?

Was JSCE designed to get you a job ?

It will be better if the who 12 years is not spent in classroom. They can do 9-3-4. The 3 there for vocational trainings/class training

I remembered when i told my brother i wanted to study mechanical engineering, he told me all of his friends that studied mechanical did not get job and doesn't even have any skill to start up anything. He made it compulsory i study medicine, my dad of blessed memory said i should listen to my brother, i agreed. I wrote the first Jamb with medicine as my choice, i failed. When my brother was not around, i have started working in an electrical store as sales boy and picking some skill from there, i picked another jamb form with my salary from sales boy work, i filled electrical engineering as my choice without telling anybody. Today I am an electrical engineer and it far pay off and better than me studying my initial mechanical engineering.

So no more junior waec and common entrance?

There no difference it’s merely a change of name. 6-3-3 egal 12. There’s no info of a curriculum change. So what’s the big deal. Whoever is the education minister is clueless and has nothing meaningful, different or tangible to offer.

Why are clowns so active this 2025?

What will now be the years for Primary and secondary along with the respective transition exams? Is this what they're wasting board meetings and Mikano fuel over, alongside fuel for vehicles and hotel accommodations??


They're so zealous for this level but will go mute and Ghost mode when it comes to the hydra headed problem of ASUU strikes. For their mind, tetfund will solve all of that. Smh.

FBIBOT:
What we need is total overhaul of curriculums right from nursery to tertiary institutions.... Most of the contents of our curriculums are already outdated and useless

You nailed it bro..The major challenge here is the curriculum but not the system we practice. The curriculum is very broad, rigorous and knowledgeable based. The children are doing too much subjects will little application to real life situations.

Unlike the British or American system, their curriculum is narrow and application based. Imagine a child in primary school offering about 10 subjects while those in JSS are taking about 14-15 subjects.

All these reforms Tinubu is introducing, I haven't seen any major change and how they reflect on the reality of our life. Instead things are deteriorating and the common or ordinary man hadly eat two square meal a day.

Where are the funds saved from subsidy? How much has been saved? What has it been used for? The new national item he introduced, has it made Nigerians more patriot? What about devaluation of our naira? Livestock ministry? Blue economy ministry? CNG buses? I can continue counting.

What I expect this minister to do is to redesign our curriculum so that it aligns with international and global practices. It should be more of skill based and practical oriented.

Then, the government should invest more in education, increase the budget allocation, renovate schools, create conducive environment for learning, equip science and computer laboratories, reintroduce extra curricula activities, competition for sports such principal cup, basketball and volleyball tournament. Brain drain and system decay should not be overlooked.

Please, visit some public schools in your state; you will feel sorry for our dear nation. Some schools are like dumbing ground.

Phase two, make it more attractive and appealing in terms salary, allowances, pension, health insurance and welfare packages for teachers and administrators. Some states are owning teachers for almost a year.

Phase three, eradicate examination malpractices and introduce camera and surveillance in exam halls. I have more to say but let me keep cool for now.

musicwriter:
Malaysia has already done all this.

What you're doing is merely reshuffling classes, which doesn't change anything.

After trying everything to no avail, Malaysia then realized that the problem wasn't class structure but that their native Malay language must be used for knowledge acquisition.

Once they returned to learning in their native language, the problem was solved.

Just learn from Malaysia. Go and read up a little about education in Malaysia

What is Nigerias native language?

africanusvu:
Immediately I saw the name as 'Alausa' I sighed and went over to next topic
Alausa means Hausa land in my language, and I know Hausa is not fair to western education but Arabic education

You are wrong, Alausa is not Hausa, it is Ala - usa joined to Alausa. You are not a yorubs person, so don't mislead people.

Dalohad:
Who are these buffoons in power who are just bent on distorting everything just to claim glory without verifiable evidence that their actions would improve the status quo?

You changed the National anthem, did that improve patriotism among Nigerians?

You removed subsidy,did it improve the standard of living or did it make Nigerians suffer? Are the Oil Cabals still not in existence?

Now you want to change educational system that has produced world renown Professors, Scientists, Business leaders, Lawyer etc. To what end? Just so you can beat your chest in future and say 'We changed it'

Insanity!

Tunji Alausa appears very daft and clueless and meddling in issues beyong his thinking faculty. This was a man who encouraged President Tinubu to break the law and appoint a non-qualified professional who happens to be his friend to come become Board Chairman of the MLSCN. Even when the law clearly states the Board Chairman must first be a member and a fellow of that council. The man picked up th MLSCN Act 11 of 2003 and threw into the dustbin..

He also meddled in UNIZIK VC politics. Taking sides with a 'Professor' who got his PhD almost a year before vying for VCship, because he is of the same profession with the man, and removing someone else who got his PhD many decades ago, because the man once played Guber politics.

He is just creating chaos everywhere without regards for due process as former junior Minister of State for Health and now as Minister for Education. What kind of anarchist is that man?


President Tinubu should better call Tunji Alausa to order for the good of his administration.

c'mon bro, why don't you leave your personal biases against the minister and praise or critique this laudable initiative, if you are aggrieved with his previous actions doesn't mean we should trash out his policies which in practical terms will formally eliminate dropouts and exploitative tendencies for common entrance fees and junior to senior entrance fees
