Lagos Govt Reopens Chrisland Schools

The directive was given in a statement released by the Lagos State Commissioner of Education, Folasade Adefisayo.

Tracknews had earlier reported that the Lagos State government shut down all Chrisland Schools in the state.

This is coming after some students of the school were involved in sexual acts during a trip to Dubai.

The Lagos government while giving the reason for the reopening of the school said the school’s Parent Teachers Association would be working on scheduled psychosocial support for the students involved in the immoral act.

“The directive follows a review of the ongoing administrative investigation into the incident. Besides, it is to ensure that students are not denied access to learning when the new term begins on Monday 25th April 2022.

“The State Government shut the schools for the safety of students and the staff and to ensure unhindered investigation of the incident.

“The Ministry of Education and other relevant agencies of the State, in conjunction with the school’s Parent Teachers Association, will be working on scheduled psychosocial support for the students.

“An extensive assessment of the school’s procedure, especially on external trips and excursions, is being made to identify safety gaps and prevent such incidents.

“Besides, the Ministry will launch the reviewed guidelines/protocols governing private and public schools across the state within the next one month.”
