Ogun State government has set new resumption date for primary, secondary as well as Government Science and Technical Colleges in the state. They will resume on January 10.

The State Government had earlier fixed January 4 for the resumption of schools but in a press statement issued in December 31, 2021, the government announced a change in the date.

The State Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Prof. Abayomi Arigbabu, said that learners and parents are required to sign an undertaking to abide by laid down regulations before resumption.

The statement reads inter alia:

“The Ogun State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology wishes to announce to the general public that the resumption date for the 2nd term 2021/2022 academic session for all primary and secondary schools as well as government science and technical colleges in the state has changed to Monday, 10th January 2022.

“The change is necessitated by the series of pre-resumption activities lined up by the ministry to further reposition our schools.

“As part of resumption guidelines, each parent/guardian and learner are expected, between Tuesday 4th and Monday 10th January 2022, to sign an undertaking of willingness to abide by laid down regulations and support the school in ensuring and enforcing discipline.

“Parents, guardians, and all school administrators are therefore enjoined to note the new resumption date while awaiting details of other pre-resumption activities. We wish all our learners compliments of the season and a peaceful term.”
