TRCN batch A PQE: Lagos shines with highest pass rate

The registrar of the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria, TRCN, Ronke Soyombo, has announced the release of the results of the recently conducted Batch ‘A’ Professional Qualifying Examination, PQE.

The PQE was conducted from May 15 to 17, 2025, across Nigeria.

A total of 13,782 candidates registered for the examination, with 12,874 (93.4%) participating in the exam and 908 (6.6%) absent.

The results showed that 8,705 candidates (67.62%) passed, while 4,169 (32.38%) failed.

According to Soyombo, “Lagos State emerged as the leading state with an impressive pass rate of 80.0%, followed by Edo State at 73.3% and Niger State at 69.2%, while the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) ranked fourth at 68.3%.”

The examination encountered some challenges, including low digital skills among some teachers, which affected their performance.

To address these challenges, Soyombo said TRCN is working towards offering digital literacy training for teachers, a curriculum guide and past questions online.

He said in a statement: “All candidates who participated in the examination can check the status of their results online at www.fron.gov.ng or www.trcnigeria.ng or visit any of our TRCN State or Liaison Office. Successful candidates can proceed with processing their certificates and licenses.

“Note that the validity of the examination results for certification is ONE (1) YEAR from the date of this publication.”

The TRCN registrar encouraged candidates who did not pass to equip themselves through ICT training and pedagogical upskills and register for the November batch.

According to him, TRCN is committed to supporting the growth and development of educators.
