Enugu State Government set to renovate 300 schools

Enugu State Govern­ment says it has con­cluded plans to insti­tute uniform curriculum for all levels of its education sector.

The state has also set ma­chineries in motion for the renovation/reconstruction of 300 primary and sec­ondary schools in parts of the state as another way of boosting the sector.

The state Commissioner for Information, Dr God­win Udeuhele, announced this while briefing newsmen after the Executive Council meeting at the Government House in Enugu.

He stated that govern­ment took the decision following the poor perfor­mance of pupils and stu­dents in schools in recent times.

 He noted that with this approval, more than three hundred secondary and primary schools in the state would be renovated/con­structed to ensure a good teaching and learning envi­ronment for the children.

According to him, the Exco had also approved a memorandum on the urgent need for monitoring the performances of teachers and their pupils to measure their achievements in public schools as a way of

improving the standard of education in the state.
