President Bola Tinubu has approved system-wide policies to overhaul the education sector to improve learning and skill development, increase enrolment and ensure the academic security of the nation‘s children.

In a statement yesterday by presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, the approved policies are captured as DOTS, an acronym representing: Data Repository, Out-of-School Children Education, Teacher Training and Development, and Skill Development and Acquisition.

Currently, Ngelale said there is a paucity of coordinated, verifiable, and authentic data on all aspects of the education sector in Nigeria, which is critical for planning.

Consequently, the president has approved the conduct of an extensive census of the following: “All schools in Nigeria from primary to tertiary level, their conditions and live-in facilities, proximity to one another, educational infrastructure, etc.

“All teachers in Nigeria, their qualifications, training support received, etc.

“All pupils and students in primary, secondary, and tertiary institutions, gender, exam grades.”

He said this information will guide federal and state interventions for teachers‘ training and development as well as overall support. It will also provide data on gender ratio (boys and girls), their specific learning needs, and who is in school or who has dropped out based on daily monitoring with year-by-year reporting.

According to him, there will be a dedicated portal/dashboard in the Federal Ministry of Education, offices of state governors, and local government chairpersons, which will host and disseminate this information for the federal government, states, and local governments to monitor in real time.

He said this new data tracking architecture will enable the government to track the progress of students, thus having a clear data-driven mechanism for interventions, especially concerning out-of-school children, girls, and those with specific learning disabilities, among others.

On the out-of-school children’s education and training, he said the Federal Ministry of Education is already implementing the government’s policy through the activities of four of its agencies. Already, there are about two million beneficiaries.

He said the system-wide policy will further enhance the education and training of the nation’s out-of-school children.

For the teachers’ development and support, the presidential spokesman said under this programme, the Federal Ministry of Education will support and train teachers in digital skills to facilitate the use of technology in classrooms.

He said this is expected to bring technology and digitization to teachers and learners at all levels of education.

For skill development and acquisition for all levels, he said, “In his determined effort to enhance skill diversity in the education sector in order to effectively equip Nigerian students with the requisite skills, knowledge, and values to become functional and productive members of society, the President has also approved the National Skills Framework.

“The framework is designed to provide the appropriate skills for each level of education that will result in the empowering of generations of Nigerians with the required aptitude for the evolving needs of the global economy of the 21st century.

“This framework is expected to address skill-gaps, quality of education, and unemployment concerns as students will acquire certain skill sets, in addition to general knowledge.

“It is expected that once fully implemented, these programmes will succeed in resetting learning and connecting the ‘DOTS’ for significant improvement of the overall education system in Nigeria, in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu,” he said.
