Practical Skills to be Added to Nigeria’s Education System
The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced that a new basic education curriculum, which will include practical skills like makeup, sewing, plumbing, and tiling, will be implemented starting January 2025.
This curriculum aims to provide students with vocational skills alongside traditional education, preparing them for a wide range of career opportunities.
The initiative is part of broader efforts to modernize the education system and equip young Nigerians with practical skills that can support entrepreneurship and self-reliance.
