The Edo State Government has said quality education which EdoBEST offers will end illegal migration and youth unemployability.

A statement by the Edo State Ministry of Education stated that Governor Godwin Obaseki unveiled the EdoBEST reform programme in 2018 to address the challenge of poor learning outcomes and youth unemployability, which were the root causes of illegal migration and people trafficking in the state.

Likewise, it stated that the Economist had recognised EdoBEST as a working model for basic education service delivery.

“Since the introduction of EdoBEST, pupils throughout the state received identical lessons in real-time. They are taught using a methodology used by Bridge Schools in Kenya; a method described by Nobel Prize in Economics Winner, Professor Michael Kremer, as delivering exceptional learning outcomes when compared to traditional methods.

According to The Economist, the feature is based on evidence from a three-day visit to a junior secondary school and two primary schools, one a progressive school in a remote village in Edo state.

The statement maintained that poor learning outcomes and youth unemployability were the root causes of illegal migration and people trafficking in the state.

It revealed that it was for this reason the “Government has upskilled 16,400 teachers and provided them with tablets to deliver more impactful lessons using a completely new method, the EdoBEST pedagogy.

“More than 350,000 children, most of them in primary schools in urban and rural areas, are benefitting from the programme.”
