Talentplus Resources International (TRI), an NGO, on Saturday in Ikorodu sensitised teachers and security guards to child rights and safety in primary schools in Lagos State.<\/p>\n

The NGO is supported by Development Research and Project Centre (DRPC), and Ford Foundation.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Aderonke K-Eseka, Executive Director, TRI, said their primary objective was to sensitise teachers and head teachers to know that they had responsibility as co-parents to ensure the safety of children in schools.<\/p>\n

K-Eseka noted that the organisation\u2019s mission was geared towards child education, youths development, women empowerment, research and child\u2019s right in the society.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the things we look at is the safe school declaration and the four pillars on the policy of security and safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also look at child\u2019s rights, roles and responsibilities of taking care of these children while they are in schools.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also look at the evacuation of children in times of emergencies,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

According the director, the current insecurity challenges in the country are worrisome and students of primary and secondary schools are not left out.<\/p>\n

She said that Lagos Safe School Technical Working Group was set up for training and advocacy for head teachers, teachers and guards in all public schools across the state.<\/p>\n

She also appealed to the state government to increase education budget, set aside funds for school safety and put in place all safety parameters like fences, guards, good toilet and a conducive and environment safe for learning.<\/p>

K-Eseka advised parents to prioritise nurturing and education of their children, teaching them good morals, provision of basic amenities like writing materials because government alone could not do all.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecently, we paid advocacy visit to Lagos state government and also looking forward to meeting the local government chairmen and community leaders because safety of children during school hours is key.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is why we are advocating and engaging both teachers, school managers, local government authorities, state ministry and stakeholders in education sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to do more, go into schools to educate them as we have done at the local government area level.<\/p>\n

\u201cLagos State Government has taken care of 80 per cent basic needs of primary school pupils, providing textbooks, uniform, shoes; parents should also provide the writing materials.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to ensure that every school in Lagos State conforms with minimum standard of safe school and conduct pasted on school walls for students to read,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Mrs Adeyinka Ajobiewe, a teacher at Owode Primary school, Ibelefun, Ikorodu, commended the organisers and promised to take the advocacy back to her school for assessment and implementation, saying \u201cit\u2019s very educative and impactful\u201d.<\/p>\n

Also, Mrs Ayo Otubamowo, a staff at the LGEA Basic Education, urged the NGO to sustain the training so that more schools could benefit and get acquainted with safety measures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
