The Executive Secretary, Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), Aisha Garba has unveiled a three-year strategic development plan aimed at repositioning basic education sub-sector.
The roadmap, tagged “UBEC 2025–2027 Strategic Blueprint” was officially launched at a two-day Management Retreat held by the Commission in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
A statement by the Public Relations Officer and Protocol of UBEC, David Apeh, said the strategic gathering brought together Directors, Deputy Directors, Assistant Directors, and Chief Education Officers from UBEC’s national, zonal, and state offices.
According to the statement the primary objective was to align on the implementation roadmap for the UBEC 2025–2027 Strategic Blueprint and build consensus around refining the Commission’s implementation plan.
Apeh said this included robust measures to ensure effective monitoring and evaluation (M&E) at all levels.
He said the retreat also aimed to re-orient management staff on critical leadership competencies to enhance operational efficiency, strengthen interdepartmental collaboration, and foster a culture of effective and accountable leadership across the Commission.
Additionally, the team collaboratively reviewed and aligned on critical components of its revised organisational structure, redesigned with KPMG support, to better position the Commission for effective functioning.
He quoted Garba to have emphasised the need for deeper collaboration among departments and with other relevant education MDAs.
Garba underscored the importance of reviewing team structures and internal processes to strengthen institutional effectiveness and reaffirm UBEC’s collective commitment to delivering quality basic education nationwide.
She said a key focus was the need to work collaboratively, internally and externally, to fulfill this commitment, especially by supporting states in developing context-specific workplans aligned with national priorities.
She reaffirmed UBEC’s commitment to translating the insights and strategic decisions into measurable actions aimed at strengthening the basic education system and improving learning outcomes for every Nigerian child.
