UBEC unveils three-year roadmap to reposition basic education
The Universal Basic Education Commission has unveiled a three-year strategic development plan to reposition the 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, by UBEC executive secretary Aisha Garba.
A UBEC statement said the strategic gathering brought together directors, deputy directors, assistant directors, and chief education officers from UBEC’s national, zonal, and state offices.
Ms Garba said 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.
The executive secretary said this includes robust measures to ensure effective monitoring and evaluation at all levels.
The UBEC executive secretary 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 in 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.
The executive secretary emphasised the need for deeper collaboration among departments and other relevant education MDAs.
Ms 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 work plans aligned with national priorities.
She reaffirmed UBEC’s commitment to translating the insights and strategic decisions into measurable actions to strengthen the basic education system and improve learning outcomes for every Nigerian child.
