The Acting Corps Commander Education (CC Edn), Brigadier General Yushau Dogara Ahmed, has launched a nationwide academic support initiative aimed at enhancing the performance of students in Command Secondary Schools ahead of forthcoming external examinations.
While launching the initiative, the CC Edn directed Command Secondary Schools across the country to organise specialised academic workshops and training sessions for teachers and Senior Secondary School Three (SS3) students.
The initiative seeks to improve teaching effectiveness while strengthening students’ preparedness for examinations conducted by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), the National Examinations Council (NECO) and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
As part of the programs lined up for the exercise, participating schools are expected to implement targeted academic clinics, intensive revision classes and examination technique workshops, with a strong focus on core subject areas.
The sessions were facilitated by experienced education officers and subject specialists, who provided in-depth revision, practical guidance on answering examination questions, and strategies for effective time management.
The programme forms part of a broader effort by the Nigerian Army Education Corps (NAEC) to enhance teachers’ instructional capacity while equipping students with the academic skills necessary for outstanding performance in external examinations.
The ongoing seven-day intensive training for teachers and SS3 students is scheduled for March and April 2026. The initiative underscores the Ag CC Edn’s commitment to sustaining academic excellence across the Command Secondary School system.
It is expected to further strengthen the reputation of Nigerian Army schools as centres of discipline, academic excellence and holistic development in line with global best practices.
