Overview
The Federal Government on Sunday announced a nationwide ban on the admission and transfer of students into Senior Secondary School Three in both public and private secondary schools across Nigeria.
The directive was issued by the Federal Ministry of Education in a press release dated December 14, 2025 and signed by the Director of Press and Public Relations, Boriowo Folasade.
It was stated that the decision was taken following “growing concerns over the increasing incidence of examination malpractice, including the use of so-called special centres during external examinations.”
The statement noted that such practices “undermine the integrity and credibility of Nigeria’s education system.”
