Education Minister, Haruna Iddrisu, has called for the conclusion of the final teacher licensure examination no later than August 30.
He asked all stakeholders to work with the registrar to set a firm date and ensure the process is completed within the stipulated timeframe.
Addressing the media, Mr Iddrisu acknowledged the ongoing concerns surrounding the licensure exams.
“If there is a last opportunity for those who sat and couldn’t make it, that process should not travel beyond 30th August,” he said.
The Minister praised the chairman and members of the committee responsible for reviewing the teacher licensure framework, commending their far-reaching recommendations aimed at adopting a more comprehensive and practical approach to assessing teacher readiness.
“This new model will guide the teacher licensure exam beyond solely paper-based assessments,” he explained.
He added “It incorporates supervised practicum evaluations and structured mentorship programmes, ensuring that newly trained teachers demonstrate not just theoretical knowledge but actual classroom competence.”
Mr Iddrisu noted that the new model would be implemented as soon as practicable, following the conclusion of the final licensure opportunity for candidates who need to resit or join the exam.
According to him, the proposed reforms seek to improve the quality of education by ensuring that certified teachers possess the necessary practical skills alongside academic knowledge before entering the classroom.
