According to President Muhammadu Buhari, his administration is committed to restoring teachers to their proper status by fully executing the criteria set forth in the professional teaching and teacher qualification framework.
He said that this will invariably have an effect on students’ academic performance and outcomes at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels.
President Muhammadu Buhari stated that the new teachers’ policy is already being implemented at the Federal level and in some States, and he urged States that have not to do so immediately because “the gains are already showing.” He was speaking at an event to commemorate World Teachers Day in 2022 with the theme “The Transformation of Education Begins with Teachers.”
Every year on October 5th, World Teachers Day is observed to honor teachers and raise awareness of issues pertaining to their wellbeing.
According to President Muhammadu Buhari, who was speaking on behalf of the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, “We are also building a verifiable database of teachers in Nigeria; the Instructors Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN) has already registered 2, 108, 342 teachers and licensed 1,250,000 teachers.”
“No society can develop beyond its educational level; in fact, education is one of the key dividing lines between wealthy, functional, and healthy cultures and less developed ones. At every level, our educators are responsible for a large part of our country’s wellbeing, he stated.
The theme, according to him, emphasized the significance of teachers in the transformation of education while also introducing the crucial responsibility that teachers themselves have, namely, to be at the forefront of educational advancements, particularly the use of technology and contemporary teaching methods.
“Education must adapt to the dynamism, rapid development, and significant social changes. Teachers need to be aware of the abilities needed to fully benefit from a technologically dependent environment. Writing, brainstorming, envisioning, and critical thinking skills are now included in school in addition to listening. It’s not just memorization anymore, he claimed.
