Nwosu emphasized that schools lacking proper accreditation do not meet the standards set by the Ministry of Education, potentially harming students’ education. He highlighted the government’s commitment to ensuring all children in Anambra have access to quality learning environments, skilled teachers, and a proper curriculum.
The state government has directed the affected schools to seek accreditation and registration with the Ministry of Education immediately. They must comply before the school term begins or face closure and other severe sanctions. The list of accredited schools will be shared with Local Government Education Departments for easier access.
