Revised Calendar: Lagos Schools to Run Second term for 61 days

The second term of the 2020/2021 academic session has been scheduled to last for 61 days for public and private schools in Lagos.

This is expected to happen provided there is no further closure as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In strict compliance with the revised calendar for the 2020/2021 academic session released by the Office of the Education Quality Assurance (OEQA), the second term is expected to run from January 18, 2021 to April 30.

The mid-term break has thereby been scheduled for March 4 and 5. Also, there will be two public holidays – Good Friday on April 2 and Easter Monday on April 5.

Resumption for the third term has, however, been slated for May 4, while the term is to close August 6.

All Schools affected have been directed to strictly comply with the revised calendar.
