LASUBEB Trains Schools’ Administrators In Preparation For Full Reopening
The Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board, (LASUBEB), has
expressed its readiness to resume academic activities in compliance
with the directive of the state governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu,
saying it has completed a two-day capacity building workshop on
post-COVID-19 and classroom management for its school administrators.
The training, which started on September 1st and ended on September
2nd, 2020 and was supported by the Universal Basic Education
Commission, (UBEC), for School Managers, Administrators, Guidance
Counsellors and Teachers.
Speaking at the capacity development workshop, the executive chairman
of LASUBEB, Hon Wahab Alawiye-King said the training programme was
designed to further reinforce COVID-19 guidelines and regulations,
psychosocial support services, and new classroom management techniques
on the participants.
He assured parents and pupils that LASUBEB has prepared teachers to
adapt to the new reality and adopt relevant hygiene protocols in
order to curtail the spread of the deadly virus ahead of schools
reopening, describing COVID-19 as “a new normal, that we all must
learn to live with, accept and be willing to overcome.”
While affirming that schools re-opening is a process, Alawiye-King
stressed that the Board was not in a rush to resume schools if the
health and safety of the pupils cannot be guaranteed
