“The 2020/2021 First (1st) term academic session for public and private schools comes to an end on Friday 18th December, 2020,” Seriki-Ayeni said.

She added that “Therefore, all public and private schools below tertiary level in the state are to close for the Christmas and New Year holiday on that day.

“Schools are to resume back on Monday 4th January, 2021 in compliance with the Lagos State harmonized academic calendar.”

Boarding schools are asked to resume on Sunday, January 3, 2021 and begin academic activities immediately.

Meanwhile, some private schools had closed for the term since Tuesday, December 15 while public schools will now close on Friday, December 18.
