Borrowing leaf from the Federal Government, the Plateau State Universal Basic Education Board (PSUBEB) has directed the immediate closure of schools across the state.
A statement by the management of the Board on Friday, said Government Junior Model Secondary Schools (GJMSSs) will close effective Saturday, 22 November 2025.
Primary and Day Schools will close effective Monday, 24 November 2025.
This decision, according to the statement underscores the urgent need for preventive action.
The Board assured parents, guardians, and stakeholders that the closure is a temporary but necessary step to forestall potential threats and to reassure communities that the government is prioritizing the wellbeing of our learners.
The Board also called on all Local Government Education Authorities, school administrators, and community leaders to cooperate fully with this directive and remain vigilant.
