Resumption: Oyo govt bars meetings during school time, prioritises learning

The Oyo State Government has forbidden teachers in the state from holding any form of meeting on and out of the school premise

The chairman, Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, Dr Nureni Aderemi Adeniran, stated this on Tuesday during a monitoring exercise that he led following schools resumption in Ibadan.

According to him, the intention is to ensure strict adherence to the unified school timetable in all public schools in the state.

“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.

He appealed to unions and associations within the basic education sub-sector to adhere to this policy, as the new session begins.

While he enjoined education secretaries in the state to disseminate the information to all head teachers in their local government universal basic education authorities, he also charged school heads to keep to the policy.

In another development, Dr Nureni Adeniran has reiterated the board’s commitment to leverage technology to ensure advancement in the education system in Oyo State.

He stated this during a three-day capacity building on use of Better Education Service Delivery (BESDA)’s Attendance Monitoring Information System (BAMIS).

He encouraged participants to learn from the process, saying “we have brought you together to develop your skills on the use of BAMIS App.”

Dr Adeniran applauded the Universal Basic Education Commission for conceiving the BAMIS App in the day-to-day official schedules as a strategy to improve performances with respect to input, output punctuality and regularity, monitoring and evaluation of learning activities.

He equally acknowledged that the board has invested a lot of money and time on the programme due to its importance to the delivery of Basic Education, a core mandate of the Board.

The event was attended by management staff, social mobilisation officers, and basic school head teachers.
