The Lagos State Government has set Saturday, July 5 for the placement test
for admission into the state public secondary schools for the 2014/15 academic
session.
The test which will be conducted in 300 centers across the state is a must
for any pupil from either private or public primary Schools to be admitted into
any of the State Secondary Schools.
The Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye disclosed this
recently at an interactive session with parents, teachers and other stakeholders
in the education sector. According to her, the placement test was necessary to test the ability of the
pupils to cope with the rigours of academics at the secondary level, train and
prepare them on how to sit and write examinations as well as prepare them
psychologically for secondary schools' education.
To be considered for admission into public secondary schools, Oladunjoye
explained that pupils were expected to obtain 50 percent average scores in
English and Mathematics in addition to 50 percent cumulative scores in the
examination.
It should be noted that apart from the placement test, there is the
screening test for pupils to be admitted into the Model Colleges In the State.
