School leaders and education stakeholders are putting finishing touches to plans  for a Guinness World Record attempt that will assemble  60,000 teachers at the ‘Let There Be Teachers’ conference, scheduled for September 20, at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos.

The unprecedented gathering aims to spotlight teachers’ issues, celebrate their contributions, and strengthen advocacy for education reform.

Ahead of the event, members of the National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools (NAPPS), the Nigeria Union of Teachers, and other education leaders converged at The Providence Hotel, Lagos, to strategise on school growth and sustainability, while mobilising teachers for the historic conference.

“This is a precursor to the event coming up next Saturday,” said Coach Luyi Armstrong, General Secretary of NAPPS. “We are excited that for the first time, teachers will gather on such a scale to discuss their challenges and celebrate their contributions. All teachers are encouraged to attend.”

 “The growth of our schools is directly tied to the growth of our teachers. When we empower schools, we empower educators, and ultimately, we secure the future of education in Nigeria,” he said.

Co-founder of 1 Million Teachers (1MT), Dr. Hakeem Subair, underscored the role of educators in nation-building.

Subair added that the conference is poised to rethink Nigeria’s education challenges.

“By uniting school leaders, policymakers, and partners, it seeks to advance solutions to learning poverty, promote technology-driven teaching, strengthen teacher training, and shape reforms that will improve outcomes for millions of children,” he said.
