The Ondo State Commissioner for Education, Science, and Technology, Prof. Igbekele Ajibefun, has ordered the immediate and indefinite closure of St. Louis Primary School, Ondo, located in the Ondo West Local Government Area.
The Commissioner stated that this drastic measure became necessary following the school’s persistent non-compliance and flagrant disregard for state guidelines governing private educational institutions.
He said the decision was part of the ongoing commitment to ensuring that all private schools operate within the legal framework of the state.
He emphasized that the closure will remain in effect until the school demonstrates full compliance with government regulations and acknowledges the state’s oversight authority.
The Ministry urges parents and guardians of pupils at St. Louis Primary School to comply with this directive immediately.
The state government remains resolute in its mission to uphold educational standards across Ondo State.
