 And away from the House of Reps to BIOS, a state where the government has finalized plans to host its first-ever Education Summit. The Commission of Education in the State, General MLI, said the summit would help generate ideas that would see to the formulation of policies aimed at repositioning the education sector of the state in the next 15 years. The BIOS State Education Summit was born out of the government's desire to overhaul the sector, to meet modern standards, having made huge investments in the past 12 years. Former President Gulak Jonathan will join other keynote speakers to share useful information and strategies aimed at improving the standard of education in BIOSA. The summit was conceptualized by the Ministry of Education and will hold from Monday 7th to a Thursday 10th, February 2022. A society places more emphasis on both soft and hard skills and science and technology to drive both work and existence. It's imperative also for educational focus to shift to more of technical and vocational education and training science, technology, engineering, and marks that stand. And other modern approaches are the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels to ensure the provision and sustenance of quality of education that meets global standards. BIOSA is among states running free education for public, primary, and secondary schools with modern-day infrastructure, but the government is open to ideas that will transform the sector. We are aware that this paradigm shift will greatly require the expertise of individuals, educationists, civil society organizations, institutions at the national, regional, continental, and global levels to provide support and guidance for partnerships and collaborations towards achieving the much greater goal of providing quality, affordable, and sustainable education through prudent allocation of human and increasingly scarce public resources. The Education Commission has also reiterated the government's commitment to the provision of quality teachers to schools, as well as their training. Jesse Acey for Plus TV Africa.
