The Plateau State Universal Basic Education Board (PSUBEB) has directed the immediate closure of schools across the state as follows:
The board, in a statement, said all 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 is underscoring the urgent need for preventive action, it explained.
The board assured parents, guardians, and stakeholders that this 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 then called on all Local Government Education Authorities, school administrators, and community leaders to cooperate fully with this directive and remain vigilant.
In the same vein, the Katsina State Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education has ordered the closure of all Government schools across the state for security reasons.
The Ministry urged parents, teachers and the whole community to follow the order immediately, while continuing to monitor state security conditions to ensure the safety of students and staff.
