The Lagos State Government has issued a stern warning to teachers and schools found conducting extra lessons after official school hours. Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Jamiu Tolani Alli-Balogun, emphasized that the extra hour is designated for extracurricular activities, not paid lessons.
The announcement came during the inauguration of a new block of classrooms and furniture donated by Grimaldi Group and the Ports & Terminal Multiservices Ltd. at the Amuwo-Odofin Junior High School Complex. Alli-Balogun stressed the importance of adhering to the National Policy on Education and ensuring students' participation in social clubs for holistic development.
The government's commitment to free education in Lagos State was underscored, with a call for strict compliance with official school hours. The initiative aims to foster a well-rounded educational experience and discourage practices detrimental to students' development.
