Just in!

Abia State Gov. Alex C. Otti Signs The Much Needed Educational Reforms Bill:

-School Leaving Certificate now cost #2000 only.

-No switching of schools in SS2.

-Where you did your SS2 is where you're writing WAEC/NECO.

-Nobody registers for WAEC/NECO without passing a Government-set examination: Government Centralized Exam (GCE).

-Textbooks are reusable.
No more doing homeworks inside textbooks, prompting new students to buy fresh textbooks each term. Families who have many kids can now have their children inherit textbooks from their siblings.

-No extravagant graduation ceremony for nursery and primary students.

All these directives, which are aimed at curbing extortion of parents, making quality education more affordable, apply to both public and private schools in Abia State.
