“To facilitate institutional co-operation through coordination of issues relating to basic and secondary education among MDA.
“To support inter-agency cooperation on education-related issues through the development of common positions on matters of common concern and cooperation in the implementation of education conventions at National and International levels.
“To encourage mechanisms that will promote best practices in Basic and Secondary education policy reforms and education management and also assist in the delivery of national, multilateral, bilateral and official development assistance (ODA) programmes.
“To improve the forum for dialogue with multilateral and bilateral institutions, the private sector, the Federal Government, developmental agencies and other partners on the basic and secondary education programme.”
According to the governor, the council will develop political strategies for arresting the state of crisis in basic and secondary education in the state.
