The Kwara State government is to upgrade 120 secondary schools across the state to meet global standards in terms of infrastructure, teaching standards and pupil-teacher ratio.

The state governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed, during an interaction with the state wing of the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), said the move was designed to enhance the quality of education and teaching standard in public schools in line with the education reform program, “Every Child Counts” which was introduced by the previous administration.

He said, “Secondary education builds on the strong foundation laid at the basic level. So we have to get it right by providing high standard education in an atmosphere conducive to quality learning for our children before they commence tertiary education.  That is why we are matching our teacher training with a curriculum overhaul and comprehensive upgrading of our secondary schools”.
