Check Application Status as Oyo SUBEB Moves to Next Stage in Teacher Recruitment Process

The Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board has announced the closure of its online portal for recruiting primary school teachers, with a total of 52,423 applications received during the application window.

 

The job application portal for recruiting 7,000 primary school teachers was opened on June 25, 2024.

 

A statement signed by Oyo SUBEB Chairman, Nureni Adeniran, on Thursday, said the job application portal was closed after the July 9 deadline.

 

He said, “We are impressed by this response which shows that people are truly keen and excited to work with the Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board. However, we are compelled to close the portal, as the deadline has passed.”

 

Adeniran added, “We received not less than 52,423 submitted applications within the number of days of opening the portal. That was impressive.

 

“After shutting the portal, our team has started sorting out the applications to pick the suitably qualified candidates who will be contacted by the Board.”

 

According to the chairman, the basic education sub-sector is dear to Governor Seyi Makinde.

 

He advised applicants to be wary of fake news on the ongoing recruitment process, advising them to regularly check their e-mails and phones for more information on the next steps.

 

Adeniran stressed that after the applications are sorted, “the next stage will be the CBT examination. The date, venue and time scheduled for each candidate, will be sent to them through their emails and phone numbers.”

 

In another development, the Board has called for synergy between it and the Oyo State Local Government Staff Pension Board.

 

This was revealed during a courtesy visit to Oyo SUBEB by the local government staff pension board Chairman, Akeem Ige.

 

Adeniran said the synergy would assist in ensuring a faster process in the documentation of retired primary school teachers.
