Taraba State Governor, Dr. Agbu Kefas, has disclosed plans by his administration to make Master’s degree the minimum academic qualification for anyone wishing to teach in the state’s secondary schools.

For primary school, the governor said the minimum qualification will be University first degree.

The governor said the current era when the National Certificate of Education (NCE) is the minimum academic qualification for primary and secondary school teachers will soon be over.

He added that the study of History as a subject would be reintroduced in the basic education carriculum in schools in the state.

The govever stated these during a dinner with Journalists n Jalingo recently.

“We are going to introduce History studies in our primary and secondary schools in the state to lay a solid foundation for the accelerated development.

“In no distant time, primary school teachers in the state must be first degree holders, while secondary schools teachers must have a minimum of Master’s degree to enhance the quality of education in the state.

“This is the main reason we have slashed the school fees for undergraduates in the State University.

“We must secure good future for our children. Our free education policy is not a joke and anybody who stands on the way to achieving this will be crushed”
