Civic Education

This term’s Civic Education curriculum centers on the theme of national unity, aiming to foster patriotism and peaceful coexistence among students. The term begins with a general understanding of national unity, highlighting its meaning and importance in building a strong, cohesive nation. Learners then explore the key characteristics that define unity within a diverse country like Nigeria, such as mutual respect, shared values, and tolerance.

The lessons progress to identify and analyze the factors that promote national unity, including good governance, equitable distribution of resources, and national symbols. This is followed by a deep dive into the factors that hinder unity, such as tribalism, corruption, and inequality. Finally, the curriculum emphasizes practical solutions to these challenges, encouraging students to become active, responsible citizens who contribute to the peace and unity of the nation.
