Ministry of Education to merge Christian and Islamic studies in schools
The Federal Ministry of
Education in conjunction with the Nigerian Educational Research and Development
Council (NERDC), is working on reducing the workload of primary and
junior secondary pupils from 20 to a maximum of ten subjects under the nine-year
basic educational curriculum in order to align with International
standards.
However, under this scheme Christian and Islamic Religious Studies, which are separately taught, will now be merged under a compulsory subject known as Religion and National Values (RNV).
Other subjects brought under the RNV include Civic Education, Social Studies, and Security Education.
