I left 15k primary school teaching job in 2011 and joined a factory to earn about 50k plus shifts and other little benefits. Now, I love teaching but it was not rewarding. My goal now is to own a school where teachers would be valued with great retirement plan. I also want to retire in the classroom as a teacher because it's my calling. I know for sure. I just need to pay the bills for now and save to achieve the goal. Teaching is fulfilling and rewarding but unfortunately, the system in Nigeria makes it hard. 10 Likes |

I really dont know why they treat there workers in such way. Since 2004 i left secondary school i still see my Business study teacher and one other man who i blv is now a principal but the condition i saw then in was very Bad. I saw the principal with a struggle to push his racketee vehicle off the road.. He seem to b like one who has been drained, used by a wicked opportunist. SEED OF LIFE COLLEGE. .

mistilink1: I agree. In fact I think all registered and inspected schools should obtain a generous portion of the billions allocated for SME's. Teachers are large employers of labour and they also spend a lot on resources etc. Imagine the multiplier effect of grants to schools on the economy. 3 Likes |

Well said. I have a sister working at one private school in Ikorodu. According to her, the owner of the school will give them tasks and would keep the gates locked until they finish the tasks…not minding the time of the day. Like prisoners. She left there already. 1 Like |

Nazgul: I know of one actually where there are people who have worked for 35 years, 28, 30, 25 etc. They have a pension scheme too, leave allowances and bonuses, several on-the-job trainings and a cooperative society that has survived decades. You are not exactly overworked but every other thing wrong with a private school is wrong with them. 1 Like |

Rapmoney: You cannot quantify/estimate the value of the knowledge and experience you will get there until you open your own school. No knowledge is a waste. Having said that, I suppose the teachers would be paid also for the holiday coaching services. |

As an educationist, this is my take The only solution to this peanut salary is to expel all non educationist from teaching line, after they study one useless course with no job, they will later litter all teaching jobs desperately accepting peanuts. We don't want every tom, dick and harry in education. Imagine only limited professionals in teaching line, employers won't have a choice than to accept their offer but presently even teachers are more than the teaching jobs. If u don't study education pls don't come to teaching line, u people are the cause of what teachers and education is experiencing currently 8 Likes 1 Share |

I can relate to this thread, but what Op fail to realize is that this is africa, and there are no provisions for summer holidays for any teacher, though depending on the level and how established a school is. Firstly, a school business is very competitive, thanks to govt school inadequacy....and you can satisfy ur curiosity by counting the numbers of private school in your immediate environment alone. If a school decided to close down the school during the holiday, other schools will enroll their students for holiday coaching, and from there, your guess is as good as mine. Secondly, teachers get to fix holiday coaching by themselves as some schools don't pay during the holiday, it's a case of get paid as you work and you still have to sort for income somewhere while you are idle as a teacher no matter how little it is. These are many factors to all these than meet the eyes. On teachers staying too long in teaching, until this country is fixed to the point that people could have more enabling atmosphere to innovate and improvise their endeavours, people will need to survive for as long as it take them to get better things doing. In summary, it is ascertain that private sectors are the biggest employer in Nigeria, not govt and private schools are arguably the most of them. Let me stop here............ Qudos to ōp anyway, this is educative 2 Likes 1 Share |

My gf had a distasteful experience here she went from class room teaching to been , a secretary ,as well as the hostel mother and to clearing and cutting grass same time for 30k In the end she was sacked with no pay even when she completed an entire month because she raised her voice over the maltreated of some senior staff, I was terribly angry and sad. I know there are some good ones really but really, private schools can be very draining. 1 Like |

Re: How Private School Owners In Nigeria Deprive Their Teachers Of Rest by zicoraads: 7:05pm On Aug 29, 2023 |
The problem with some of you, and I see a lot on this thread, is that you don't have what it takes to be at the top of the food chain. These daily topics have becoming nauseating to be honest. Granted, there are lots of schools that pay peanuts, but there are also lots that pay very good, and give their teachers breaks all the time. A friend got a job in one and the starting salary was 300k, with 400k annual rent. I know a lot where starting salary is 100k, with annual rent of 200k. This is in addition to staff trainings, breakfasts, medical subsidy, leave, etc. It may not be like tech and other industries, but I think it's an OK salary. The truth is almost every profession has those who are at the top, and those at the bottom. But some of you are either too lazy, or not good enough to be at the top of the food chain. Instead of these constant complaints, do your research, build yourself and apply to these good schools. After all, na human beings like una dey still work for there. 5 Likes |

The story is not the same everywhere. I am into the academics. My pay is in hundreds of thousands, I had a summer break from 29th of June till yesterday, 28th of August and I have been put on the list of staff to go for a training outside Nigeria. All expense paid. I can say I make a decent living from teaching, however , I understand that it is a nightmare for most teachers in Nigeria, ran by Nigerian owners. My sincerest pray is that God makes a better way for everyone who is labouring on other people's children and not getting a fair treatment for the labour. There is no sweeter payback than ditching 'slave-making' employers for those who are ready to pay for every worth of your sweat. I also advise that teachers should upgrade their skills. There are free online courses you can take and webinars where you can get certificate of participation for. Lastly, no matter what you do, let Abuja schools be the least on your list. My experience with them is horrible. Those guys are capitalists and will lay claim on every breath, every second and everything called freedom that comes to you. Just a few of them are really international and have staff welfare at the back of their minds. |
