The full list of subjects in Nigeria’s newly introduced school curriculum has surfaced online after the Special Assistant to the President on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, shared it on Wednesday.
In a post on his X handle, Olusegun displayed an image purportedly outlining the new subjects for Junior and Senior Secondary Schools. According to him, the new curriculum will take effect from September 2025.
