The circular read in part, “Recall that at the policy review roundtable summit on some extant policies in the Education Sector held between 20 and 21st February, 2020, His Excellency, Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola, approved that schools should revert to their pre-reclassification names and nomenclatures.

“Sequel to the above, all schools are hereby directed to revert to their old names with immediate effect as approved by the Osun State Government.”

Earlier this week, the state announced September 21 as resumption date after COVID-19 forceful closure of schools.
