The Lagos State Government has said it is exploring technology to implement and sustain its safety programmes across schools in the state.

The lead resource of Safe School Lagos Initiative, Dr BISI ESURUOSO, made this known at the maiden Beacon of Safety Award Conference held in the state.

ESURUOSO said the state government had also formed an alliance with relevant agencies such as the police and the Federal Road Safety Corps. 

She added that the body in its call for safe recruitment checks, provided clearance to every teacher in Lagos schools to ensure that they are safe to be close to the children.

On her part, the Director General of Lagos State Safety Commission, LANRE MOJOLA said safety-compliance certificates have been issued to schools that have met minimum safety standards. 

She also noted that 3,000 students and 5,000 teachers have been inaugurated as safety ambassadors and safety champions.
