RE: VIRAL VIDEO ON UNAPPROVED NURSERY SCHOOL ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEXTBOOK


The Lagos State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education is aware of a viral video circulating online concerning alleged inappropriate content found in an English language textbook for Nursery pupils being used in a school, posted on a social media by a mother.


The Ministry, however, wishes to assure parents, guardians, educators, and the general public that immediate steps have been taken to investigate the matter, as the Hon. Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Mr. Jamiu Tolani Alli-Balogun, has directed the commencement of investigations into the matter.


 


According to a statement issued by the Ministry, findings confirm that the textbook in question is not among the books reviewed, approved, or recommended by the Lagos State Government for use in public or approved private primary schools in the State. Preliminary findings indicate that the school featured in the video is located somewhere in Ojo Local Government, Lagos State. 


It stated unequivocally that the said textbook is not among the approved and recommended instructional materials authorised for use in public or approved private schools across the State.


The name of the school and publisher have been identified for further investigation and appropriate actions. The public is hereby assured of qualitative foundational education for our children in the state. 


The Ministry maintains a strict policy on the selection and approval of educational materials to ensure that all learning resources are age-appropriate, morally sound, and align with the educational standards and values of the State.


The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, Mrs. Abisola Dokunmu-Adegbite, reiterated that only government-approved textbooks and instructional materials are permitted for use in schools in Lagos State. School administrators, proprietors, and teachers are again advised to adhere strictly to these guidelines to safeguard the moral and academic development of our learners.


She urged members of the public to remain calm as the State Government remains committed to providing a safe, conducive, and value-driven learning environment for all pupils and students.


The Ministry thanked the public for their vigilance and encouraged residents to continue partnering with the State Government.
