The Ogun State Government is set to recruit another batch of 1,000 teachers to fill existing vacancies in public schools in the state.
The exercise is being coordinated by the State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, in conjunction with the State Teaching Service Commission, the State Universal Basic Education Board and the Ogun State Technical and Vocational Education Board.
The Ogun State Teaching Experience Acquisition Channel is a special intervention scheme designed to fill existing vacancies in the state’s public primary, secondary and technical colleges.
A statement signed by the Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Prof Abayomi Arigbabu on Friday, noted that “prospective applicants are expected to hold a minimum of a National Certificate in Education (NCE) or a B.A. (Edu)/B.Sc. (Ed)/B.Ed. with a Second Class Lower in relevant subjects/courses.
“Those from other disciplines (different from education) must possess a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education from reputable universities,” adding that “applicants to be considered for Technical Colleges will be expected to hold B.Sc. in Technical Education/B.Sc. in Engineering/B.Eng./HND in Engineering Fields.
“Interested applicants are to apply through the Ogun State Job Portal via www.teach.ogunstate.gov.ng between Wednesday, October 16, and Wednesday, November 6, 2024.”
The statement noted that the successful applicants, known as TEACH Interns, shall be deployed to Local Government Areas in need of their services and will receive a stipend every month for two years, after which they will be assessed on parameters ranging from expertise, commitment to duty, punctuality, respect for constituted authority and willingness to work wherever they are posted.
The 1,000 interns to be recruited is the last batch of 5,000 interns promised by Governor Dapo Abiodun.
Some of the first 4,000 interns were offered permanent appointments and now work as permanent teachers.
