Education Risk and Governance Summit 2022
Recent occurrences have exposed the systemic gaps in Nigerian schools around safety and child protection. In the wake of these reports of insecurity in the school system, the vulnerability of and exposure to threats to children and school operators is at an all-time high.
There is a safeguarding crisis crippling the Nigerian education system which, consequently, puts the Nigerian child at risk of immense danger both physically and psychologically.
Research has also shown that such childhood related trauma impacts on the mental health, academic outcomes, and the overall future of our children. The question remains, who is responsible for addressing these issues? What is the role of both internal and external stakeholders? How should we respond to this professional, moral and ethical responsibility?
