About SEMS How SEMS works

Educational levels covered

From the first day of school to professional practice

SEMS is the umbrella for Nigerian education management at every level — each level served by its own system, clearly labelled as Available, Pilot or Planned.

Pre-primary · Primary · JSS · SSS

Basic & Secondary Education

Available

The Smart School Management System and free school websites for every nursery, primary and secondary school — students, staff, continuous assessment, termly report sheets, fees and admissions.

Universities · Polytechnics · Colleges of Education

Tertiary Education

Pilot

ITEMS — the Integrated Tertiary Education Management System and ITEMS eCampus: admissions, registration, assessment, GPA/CGPA, transcripts, fees and online programme delivery for universities, polytechnics and colleges, on its own platform under the SEMS umbrella.

Technical colleges · Skills & vocational centres · Professional bodies

Professional & Vocational Education

Planned

How SEMS is delivered

Three connected layers: Central, State and School

One national platform, delivered through the Federal level, every state ministry of education and every school — each with its own address, data and administrators.

Central SEMS

National oversight for the Federal level: state portals, national EMIS, curriculum and LMS, partners, programmes, news and events.
