FCT College of Education, Zuba

FCT College of Education, Zuba was founded in the year 1997. The college took off on the site of the defunct Government Teachers College Zuba, which had to be upgraded to a college of education with the abrogation of the Teachers’ Grade II Colleges.

In 1996, the Minister of FCT set up a Committee with members drawn from the Department of Education FCDA to work out modalities for the establishment of a College of Education.

The recommendation submitted by the committee gave birth to the FCT College of Education which was temporarily sited at the defunct Teachers College Zuba.

The College was established to provide qualitative teacher education geared towards meeting the present challenges facing the Nigerian educational system especially in the area of training teachers in the Science and Nigerian Languages to teach at the Primary Schools. A Deputy Director Mr. B.L. Banda from the Education Department FCDA was appointed the 1st Provost of the College.

Also the Principal of the defunct Teachers' College Alhaji A.G. Zakari was appointed the Registrar of the College while other staff of both administration and academic were drawn from Secondary Schools within FCT to constitute the pioneer teachers and administrative staff of the College.
