Jigawa State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) says the state government had trained over three thousand teachers across the state.
SUBEB chairman, Alhaji Salisu Zakar disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Dutse.
He said that beneficiaries of the training programme were selected from primary and junior secondary schools in the 27 local government areas in the state.
According to him, the step is to build the capacity of teachers in order to improve standard of education.
Alhaji Salisu Zakar said that the government had also concluded plans to recruit 4,500 teachers in the state.
He said that teachers were inadequate in primary and secondary schools across the state, and the financial implication of the proposed recruitment had been captured in the 2016 budget.
Alhaji Zakar said government had released more than 600 million naira as counterpart funds to various Federal Government education programmes to enable the state to access necessary funds to improve its basic education.
