dc.description.abstractThe perennial problems of increased poverty, youth and graduate unemployment; overdependence on foreign goods and technology; among others have become worrisome to the government. Entrepreneurship education as a highly potent developmental strategy can therefore be used to equip the youths with the necessary skills to be se/f-reliant. However, refocusing school curriculum towards this direction provides necessary impetus for increasing innovation, employment and boosting national productivity. Hence, this study was carried out to examine the relevance of an entrepreneurship based curriculum as a panacea for alleviating poverty among Nigeria Senior Secondary Schools (SSS) students as perceived by teachers and their students. The cross-sectional survey method was adopted for the study. Researcher- designed instruments were used. Mean ratings and t-test inferential statistics were used to analyse results. Findings of the study revealed that teachers and their students had a positive perception towards the introduction of entrepreneurship- oriented curriculum for the SSS programmes and strongly posited that this proposed curriculum innovation could develop the spirit and culture of entrepreneurship and arrest unemployment problems. It was recommended that the government should create an entrepreneurially supportive environment that could he/p to develop an enterprise culture among students. .en_US
