    1. Yes Ese. The ancient times indeed. In Lagos state, it used to be 8-12 for morning and 12-4 for afternoon section. At least with this timeplan, there won't be too much workload/stress on the teachers too. Cotonou still practice this system. Good Morning!

    2. It's to limit crowding in class at one time. Half of the class will attend each session.

  4. Nice one👏🏼

    They better adhere to the safety precautions across all schools nationwide and also use this opportunity to employ more teachers, if they expect the previous teachers to teach during day and night, then they should increase or rather double their salary as well.

  5. With this, when are the children then expected to close from school for the day, I mean the afternoon school people? With the traffic that has been trending in Lagos for a while now in the afternoons when workers try to rush back home before the curfew 😕

    Make them think am well well biko. Can't wait for all this to be over but safety first.

    1. Total rubbish! How do they teach lil kids in KG and nursery social distancing and washing hands always? They should let these kids stay home!!

    2. Younger kids will be morning,it would help in decongestion.

    3. Exactly Shantelle, they should let the kids stay at home. Children do not understand social distance especially KGs. Nigerian government is all mouth and no action. Day and night school indeed.

    4. Children should stay at home for how long?, covid19 is not leaving anytime soon,

      Delete
    5. Stay at home for how long? Until they get the vaccine? How long do you think it would take? We need to get back into the society because the truth is that this virus will remain for a long time. Let's face reality,no sentiments! Everyone should be responsible(hygiene wise). Boost your immune system so that your body can fight the virus if you get exposed to it.

      Delete
    6. Anons,we're already back in the society. We're talking about kids here for goodness sake! Do you want your kids going to school and on their return,you're worried about who they might have had contact with?
      Those in secondary and tertiary institutions can resume,they're old enough to take safety measures. But those in primary down to creche should stay home! Their parents should employ any of their job seeking relative to home school them.

    This just remind me of when my older kid was in preschool afternoon session. before you drop off and do 1 or 2 things its 4hrs and time for pickup.
    Good step for kids to get fresh air but it sucks because afternoon is like play/naptime.

  10. FG and State Governments should build makeshift schools and employ more teachers (maybe on contract) and run morning sessions all through.

    If they could build makeshift hospitals , then they should do the same for schools.

    Children should not be subjected to learning under the hot weather conditions and heavy, chaotic traffic in some cities.

    1. Is this even feasible right now in your mind? When will they finish? When will they screen teachers, and then employ them? Do you honestly think corona virus will be completely eradicated anytime soon? What the government is doing now is short term plans. Something like this can be thought of later. Much later.

      This is Nigeria abeg and we know how these things work. Let's even applaud them for coming up with something this reasonable.

    2. Then, they should continue with the online, TV and radio schools for the preschoolers and primary schools @11:36.

  11. Thank God they've started talking about schools. This is a new development.

  12. I just wonder how they will do it especially for the young kids. How will they adjust that school is both morning and afternoon shifts.

    And parents dropping them, how will they adjust to these because of work. Let's see how they will work it out

    1. Everybody will adjust o... Cos this is exactly how most of us born in the 90's attended school back then. Especially those that attended government primary schools.

      They cannot sit home forever. The virus can't be eradicated soon. With luck, we'll get drugs like anti retroviral drugs for HIV. Finish!

    2. Madam born in the 90s. Pls .this is not the 90s. Times have changed. I'm sure it doesn't take you 4hrs to get home for a journey of 30mins in the 90s

    3. Good response @15:54!👍

  13. This gives me memories of my primary school days in uniprimary Nsukka...1 to 3 was morning while 4 to 6 was afternoon.Was really fun then but was stressful cos our afternoon time was short unlike morning classes.

  14. Great idea.
    Let's return to school o

  15. I hope they put teachers into consideration by at least increasing their salaries or by giving them allowance.

    1. Many public schools are short staffed self. A lot of things have to be put in place to make this work. That is if parents release their children, particularly the younger ones.

      BV Teetee.

  16. That's a good one. Some children are already forgetting what they were taught in school sef

    ReplyDelete
  17. The teachers will be under stress. Except more teachers will be recruited.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hope stingy school owners will employ more teachers. Not that one person will talk and teach morning and afternoon sessions with the same meagre salary...

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Whether its #10 they'll be paying the teachers o... We will know. I totally understand this point.
      But then, it is most likely the same number of students that will still attend the school when it resumes, or even less. What do they stand to gain by employing more teachers? Don't forget that this school is also a business for them and most private school owners are capitalists.
      So its going to be a case of if you can do it, fine. If you can't leave. And trust me, they'll employ someone else soon enough
      This idea however, should be directed to the government.

  19. Absolute nonsense if indeed cases are increasing then why the rush for children to go back to school , this our copy cat is not helping at all, I only feel for the poor children cos this guys are not thinking straight a month more will not kill the children if they wait, a lot of covid cases people are hiding and self medicating their kids are going to mix with other kids, how do you teach a child how to social distance and adhere to safety precautions? Hmm what do I know? It is well

  20. At least kids will stop going to school by 8 and closing by 4. They always come back so exhausted from school. Meanwhile, homework is still waiting for them daily. We had it better as kids abeg... and we didn't turn out badly.

  21. We cannot please everyone at the same time. With time I think corrections and adjustments will made as issues arise. I just hope the government will not disappoint eventually. It is well.

  22. so what will now happen to universities that had been on strike before now.
    And all I thought was that I would finally be cleared to go for service before December .Most times I just hate being Nigerian

    ReplyDelete
  23. Some private schools have empty classes which the govt can put extra students in. They may have to liase with private school owners to see how this can work.

    ReplyDelete
  24. The govt needs to consider parents that drop kids off at school before heading to the office. If such kids are in afternoon session, how will such parents cope?

    For me i think it should be on some days in a week rather than morning or afternoon session! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

  25. The government should stop this copy cat style of governance. Our kids cannot be exposed to the virus because we do not have facilities to handle that. They should improve the medical facilities first. The minister is trying so hard to cash out the situation as well. Can he truly put the lives of his own children at risk. What checks and balance system is available for the children???

    1. Thank you! I was wondering what sort of senseless idea it was to reopen schools. Especially at this time when infections are rising. How does thàtevenmake any sense?

  26. What about toddlers? How are they going to follow guidelines like social distancing? In class, school bus and school premises. They can't carry or use their own sanitizers. Imagine all the surfaces they'll touch. You can't stop them from touching their faces and putting their hands in their mouth!
    They can resume if they want to. I have one child, I will home school her. I work from home. I no fit shout.

  27. When past and present administrations and some undesirable citizens were playing to the gallery with corruption/looting of public funds they did not know 'the wind of Covid-19' will blow open their poor infrastructure or lack thereof.

    No proper urban and regional planning. No development of new cities in all regions interconnected by railway and good roads. No pipe-borne water. Undeveloped power sector. Non-existent health sector. Educational sector in shambles.

    They thought they were doing Lagos State a favour by not allowing seaports in other States to be functional. See how over populated it has become with the influx of people from different States.
