There are a few educational television and radio programmes for students in primary and secondary schools to follow during the nationwide school shutdown.
This movement restriction across Nigeria is meant to curtail the spread of the novel Coronavirus pandemic otherwise called COVID-19.
Recall that EduCeleb.com reported that the Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Ondo and a few other state governments introduced alternative learning platforms through the mass media and the internet.
In this post, we present you the schedule of the educational television, radio and digital programmes.
These programmes provide alternative avenues to learn some school subjects for students. Covered are core subjects in every level of basic and secondary school education for parents to take advantage of to engage their children during this period.
For the benefit of students in states outside the signal coverage of media channels here, we also share the digital and cable channels for everyone to catch up with the programme schedules.
Please, note that these are mainly available throughout the period of shutdown of schools. We would update you in the event that such programme schedules are available thereafter.
