The Lagos State Government has adopted staggered resumption for boarders in Model Colleges and Upgraded Schools as it releases resumption guidelines for the 2021/2022 Academic Session for both public and private schools in the state.

Schools, according to the resumption guidelines are expected to resume on September 13, 2021, while students of Model Colleges and Upgraded Schools are to resume in batches from September 19, 2021.

Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Folasade Adefisayo who disclosed this revealed that the adoption of staggered resumption for Model Colleges and Upgraded Schools was due to the presence of 2020/2021 SS3 students currently writing the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), which will end on October 6, 2021, as the schools cannot accommodate seven sets in the boarding system.

The Commissioner appealed to parents to abide by the new development for a smooth academic session while she encouraged the students to take their academics more seriously and devote more time to their studies.
