Honourable Minister of Education Launches Two Basic Education School-based Management Initiatives to Improve Student Education and Teacher Training

Today, the Honourable Minister of Education, Dr Maruf Tunji Alausa, alongside the Honourable Minister of State, Prof. Suwaiba Said Ahmed launched two landmark initiatives at the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) Digital Resource Centre (DRC): (1) the Universal Basic Education (UBE) School-Based Management Committee-School Improvement Programme (SBMC-SIP) and (2) the Teacher Professional Development (TPD).

The Ministry’s belief in every child’s right to access quality education in safe, supportive environments aligns fully with the vision of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose Renewed Hope Agenda places education and human capital development at the heart of national transformation. The President has made it clear: children must learn, teachers must be equipped, and schools must serve as engines of opportunity for every Nigerian household.
