 Anambra Govt Bans Writing of Assignments in Textbooks


By Obiageli Nwankwo


The Anambra State Government has banned the practice of writing assignments inside textbooks, describing it as wasteful and unsustainable.


The State Commissioner for Education, Prof. Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, announced the directive on Thursday while addressing participants at the third day of a capacity building workshop organized by the Ministry of Education for private school proprietors and teachers at St. John of God Secondary School, Awka.


Prof. Chuma-Udeh explained that the decision was aimed at making textbooks reusable, especially for younger siblings of pupils who would need them when they advance to the next class. She also stressed the need for textbooks to be inclusive, reflecting diversity, equality, and the needs of all learners.


She warned that the government would not tolerate non-compliance with the directive and urged parents, teachers, and school administrators to ensure strict adherence. She also encouraged stakeholders to report cases of defaulters to the Ministry of Education.


According to the Commissioner, the initiative is part of the state government’s strategy to ease financial pressure on families while promoting quality and sustainable education.
