The Federal College of Education (FCE), Bauchi, weekend matriculated 350 students into its National Certificate in Education (NCE) for the 2022/2023 academic session.
Speaking at the maiden matriculation ceremony in Jama’are, the provost of the college, Prof. Aisha Mohammed, urged students to exhibit discipline, loyalty, honesty and good character at all times.
She stated that the college is highly determined to promote good conduct and discipline, adding that the award of Nigeria Certificate in Education (N.C.E), is not only based on academic performance, but also on character.
She said the college has zero tolerance for anti- social behaviours, especially examination malpractice, indecent dressing, drug abuse, unlawful associations and other vices.
“It is my honour and privilege to welcome you all to the 2022/2023 N.C.E maiden matriculation ceremony. On behalf of the management team and academic board, I heartily felicitate with the successful students who were admitted into various N.C.E programmes of the college.
“Out of the many applications for admission, candidates who satisfied the requirements of the college were admitted as approved by the NCCE. I congratulate you for scaling through the rigorous screening process into this newly established college of education in Nigeria.
“The college frowns at any display of acts of indiscipline. Students are expected to exhibit good moral conduct within and outside the college to avoid embarrassment or sanctions,” Prof. Mohammed said.
