The Lagos State Government has made arrangements to air lessons in eight subjects on Wazobia FM and Wazobia TV, daily.
The Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) has also planned programmes for all classes on its Interactive Radio Instruction initiative on Radio Lagos and Eko F.M.
This is in fulfilment of the Education Commissioner, Mrs. Folasade Adefisayo’s promise that teachers would record lessons in eight subjects targeted at JSS3 and SS3 pupils preparing for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BACE) and the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
The subjects are: Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Literature in English, Financial Accounting, Yoruba and Economics.

According to a schedule shared by the public Affairs unit of the Ministry of Education, the lesson would air 11am-1pm Mondays to Thursdays and feature call-in tutorial class on Fridays.
The television version would air 2pm-4pm Mondays to Thursdays, while a repeat broadcast would feature 3pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
The lessons for primary school pupils will air for Primary 1 and 2 pupils Mondays to Thursdays on Radio Lagos 107.5 FM in the mornings from 9.30am; while programmes for Primary 3-6 pupils will air on Eko FM between 10.30am and 12.35 pm on same days.
The government came up with the TV lessons to reduce the negative impact of school closures as a result of the COVID-19 on pupils.
The state shut schools on March 23 – two weeks to the end of the second term to mitigate the spread of the highly-infectious virus.
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has since suspended the WASSCE for school candidates 2020 until the health situation improves.
