“This is a warning to all head teachers and teachers to desist from holding meetings during school hours”.
“Henceforth, any primary school head teacher who indulges in such an act will be severely dealt with,” he said.
As the new session began, Adeniran appealed to unions and associations within the basic education subsector to adhere to this policy.
The chairman also directed the Education Secretaries to disseminate the information to all head teachers in their Local government universal essential education authorities.
He also directed school heads to keep to the policy.
