The Lagos State Government on Saturday vowed to shut down schools that failed to comply with the stipulated academic calendar in the state.

Anaedoonline.ng reports that this was made known by the Director-General, Office of Education Quality Assurance, Abiola Seriki-Ayeni.

The Lagos government vowed to take disciplinary actions against such schools as compilation of the names of schools that failed to obey the directive of the state’s Ministry of Education that private and public schools should resume on Tuesday, January 4, 2022, is ongoing.

She stressed that the monitoring exercise embarked upon by the officials of the Agency was to appraise the level of compliance with the resumption date, students’ presence and COVID-19 safety protocols.

The DG explained that the Y2021/2022 harmonised school calendar was developed in conjunction with stakeholders in June 2021 to ensure uniformity in the education system.

She said the agreement was communicated to all schools and associations to ensure equal educational standards and learning systems.

“During our recent exercise to monitor the level of compliance with Tuesday 4th January, 2022 resumption date, we observed that the level of compliance was low. We are going to seal the schools that have not adhered to the academic calendar with ‘Notice of Non-Compliance’ stickers and issue letters of invitation to the Administrators to visit our office in Alausa where further disciplinary actions will be taken,” Seriki-Ayeni was quoted as saying.
