Changes in the Education System

The 6-3-3-4 system has been replaced with a 12-4 structure.

The government has also proposed setting 16 years as the minimum age for admission into tertiary institutions.

This decision was discussed at the 2025 extraordinary National Council on Education (NCE) meeting held in Abuja.

The Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, announced the reform, stating that the change will ensure continuous learning without systemic barriers.

Expected Benefits of the New System

  • Students will complete 12 years of education before higher education.
  • Dropout rates will reduce as financial barriers are removed.
  • Vocational and entrepreneurial skills will be introduced early.
  • A uniform curriculum will be adopted across the country.

Alignment with Global Practices

Many developed countries already have a 12-year basic education model.

This structure helps students gain foundational knowledge before entering tertiary education.

The new system will also make Nigeria’s education system more competitive internationally.

Impact on Society and the Economy

  • More educated youth will enter the workforce with relevant skills.
  • Fewer children will be involved in child labour and social vices.
  • National development will improve with a skilled and knowledgeable workforce.

Implementation Strategies

The government has outlined steps to integrate secondary education into basic education.

These include:

  • Policy Reforms – Adjustments in education policies to support the new model.
  • Infrastructure Expansion – More schools and classrooms to accommodate students.
  • Teacher Training and Recruitment – More qualified teachers to meet demand.
  • Funding and Partnerships – Increased financial support for education.
  • Curriculum Enhancement – Standardised learning structure across schools.

The new system aims to improve education quality and prepare students for higher education or employment.
