President Goodluck Jonathan launched an e-curriculum portal to help raise Nigeria’s educational system to global standards. This will also aid teaching and learning in senior secondary schools across the country. The portal is an initiative of the Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC) and SIDMACH Technologies Nigeria Limited.
At the launch of the educational software portal, the Minister of State for Education Nyesom Wike applauded the initiative and affirmed it was in line with the deployment of information and communication technology as outlined in the education policy of Jonathan’s administration.
He stated the portal will address the acute shortages of national curricula available to students in senior secondary schools.
“The NERDC e-curriculum portal is a web-based, efficient and effective curriculum management solution for primary and secondary schools. This solution will provide digital access to school curricula, provision of sample teaching resources for teachers to prepare lesson notes, provision of sample learning materials for the learners," said Wike.
The initiative is in line with President Jonathan's efforts to move Nigeria forward by keeping pace with global technological advancement in all areas of national life.
