Education is believed to be an instrument of national development. The
realization of this fact is responsible for many countries embarking on one form of
educational program or the other. The Nigerian educational system has
metamorphosized from the 6-5-2-3 to the 6-3-3-4 system. As laudable as the objectives
of the 6-3-3-4 system were, they were not fully attained. In recent times, the
nomenclature of our educational system has changed to Universal Basic Education
(UBE). This study examined a chronicle of the development of the various educational
programs, highlighting the fact that they failed and stressing the fact that if the
problems of proper implementation are not addressed, the education system will
continue to move in the same circle. It proffers solutions to the teething problems of
failure in policy implementation.
