According a statement by the ministry’s Director, Press and Public Relations, Boriowo Folasade on Sunday, under the new framework, the NTI will return to its core mandate of in-service teacher training and continuous professional development at the foundational, basic, and post-basic levels, while the TRCN will focus exclusively on regulating the teaching profession and licensing qualified teachers nationwide.

In line with this reform, the Federal Government has introduced new welfare terms and operational guidelines for both agencies which include, Teacher licensing and registration, Professional development requirements, Monitoring and compliance mechanisms, Teacher welfare and benefits and Curriculum and professional practice standards.

“Going forward, no teacher will be allowed to stand before a Nigerian classroom without proper registration and licensing by TRCN. This ensures that every child is taught by competent, professional teachers who meet the highest standards,” Alausa stated.
