introduce a new educational framework while also announcing the official
resumption date for schools across the state.
The Commissioner for Education
and Human Capital Development, Dr. Lawal Olohungbebe, on Wednesday confirmed
that all basic, junior, and secondary schools will resume on Monday, September

He explained that the decision
was among the resolutions reached at a recent stakeholders’ meeting convened by
the ministry to assess readiness for the new session.
Olohungbebe added that adequate measures have been put in
place to ensure a safe and conducive learning environment for students.
Reiterating government’s
commitment to a successful school year, the commissioner said a comprehensive
review of the previous academic year had been carried out to identify key areas
requiring more attention.
"A review
of the previous academic year has been undertaken, and areas requiring more
attention have been identified,” commissioner said. “As a government, we
reassure all stakeholders, including our partners, of our commitment to
uninterrupted education for all learners in Kwara State.”
The
commissioner also revealed that the government is finalising a robust policy
framework to strengthen the state’s education system. Details of the policy, he
added, would be made public after ongoing consultations with stakeholders are
concluded.
He called on parents, school heads, learners, and administrators to support government initiatives aimed at delivering quality and inclusive education.
Olohungbebe further stressed that new initiatives, including technological solutions, are being introduced to make learning more attractive and accessible to all children across the state.
