The
Federal Government has said teachers who do not possess Professional
Certificate of the Teachers’ Registration Council, TRCN, will be shown the way
out by the end of this year. This was disclosed by the Registrar/Chief
Executive of the Council, Professor Olusegun Ajiboye in Ibadan. According to
him, the decision is part of the three-year Ministerial Strategic Plan by the
Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu. This, he added, was aimed at getting
rid of unqualified teachers in Nigerian schools.
He further
hinted that the first professional qualifying examination of TRCN would hold at
the end of September, 2017. He advised those who want to use the normal
registration to act before the end of May 2017. While hinting that about 1.6m
teachers have registered, he said examination was designed in modules
comprising category A (PhD holders), B (Master degree holders), C (Bachelor
degree holders), and D (NCE holders). Ajiboye said, “By the end of 2017,
Nigerian children will be taught by only qualified professional teachers who
can deliver the quality education desirous for the elevation of our children
and our country.”
