The council had earlier set December 31 last year as the deadline for teachers in both public and private schools to get their licence from the council.
Mr Ajiboye, who addressed journalists on Wednesday in Ibadan, said the National Council on Education declared December 31, 2019, as the last day for unlicensed teachers to be registered with TRCN or get booted out of the classroom.
Mr Ajiboye said the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration has a dream to ensure professional teachers are given the necessary tools to perform. “TRCN Commences Compliance Monitoring across the country. As the December 31, 2019, deadline given by the National Council on Education for anybody who wants to practise as a teacher in the country to get qualified, registered and licensed by TRCN has passed, the regulatory authority is embarking on verification of compliance in all the States of the Federation and FCT.
“The TRCN team in each state will be led by a professor of Education or a provost of a College of Education. The first leg of the exercise will start on the 9th of March and end on the 17th.
