The Immaculate Conception Secondary school in Bauchi State has today organized a debate on the way forward in the Nigerian education system.

Speaking at the immaculate secondary school Bauchi, the Rev, Hilary Nanman Dachelem of the Catholic bishop of Bauchi diocese said that students were able to make presentations from different perspectives and each of them has a lot to contribute in that matter.

“Something must happen that is done differently to get a different result because what we are, what we are experiencing, what we are passing through is not exactly the same variables that occurred previously.

Also speaking the debate coordinator, and ICSS literature Mr Adewale Adelasoye, also said that the debate helps in the total development of the students and attachment of education for sustainable development. He said.
