    (Published by Faculty of Education, University of Ilesa, 2025) KAYODE, Sadiq Toyin; Abdulsalam, Oladimeji Sholagberu; Abdulwahab, Rafiu
    This paper examined the implementation of the nomadic education curriculum in nomadic education centres in Kwara State, Nigeria. The nomadic education programme was established to extend educational opportunities to nomadic learners of mobile populations; its impact has been hindered. The paper argues that the implementation of the curriculum remains largely ineffective due to inadequate teaching and learning resources, insufficiently trained facilitators, low learners participation, weak communities’ participation and poor alignment of curriculum content with the cultural and economic realities of nomadic communities. Evidence suggests that these challenges continue to hinder the goals of inclusiveness and educational qualities. The Paper therefore, takes the position that unless urgent reforms are made such as improving facilitators’ participation, redesigning curriculum content to reflect nomadic livelihood and increasing government and stakeholders support, nomadic education programme will remain unable to achieve the intended objectives. Recommendations are provided to strengthen implementation strategies and provide sustainable educational outcomes for nomadic education in Kwara State, Nigeria.
