As part of preparatory guidelines for the reopening of schools in the State of Osun, the government has trained a total of 1,620 teachers and education frontliners in the State on the effective discharge of their duties when schools are finally reopened, following months of COVID-19-induced lockdown.
According to the Executive Chairman, Osun State Universal Basic Education Board, Hon. Israel Famurewa, the two-day virtual training programme, which was organized for Heads of Primary and Junior Secondary Schools across the State, in collaboration with Destiny Development Initiative, was to prepare the teachers for the provision of qualitative education for children of the State, according to the passion and focus of Governor Adegboyega Oyetola.
Famurewa, who expressed satisfaction with the training programme, stated that it would go a long way to keep teachers abreast of the global transformational teaching techniques in a Post COVID-19 era.
He, however, implored the participants to reproduce the knowledge derived from the training at their various places of primary assignment, in order to move education in the State to a greater height.
In his welcome address, the Executive Secretary, Mr Adeoye Bakare, thanked Destiny Development Initiative and the education stakeholders, and advised teachers to be alive to their duties and to complement government’s huge investment in the education sector by following the best practices in the post COVID-19 education management.
