Abstract
Education system in Nigeria has witnessed a lot of changes and innovation toward improving quality teaching and learning processes. The Nigeria Certificate in Education Minimum Standards 2020 Edition, designed by the National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE) is the revised edition of the curriculum. The curriculum served as the most recent course outline for the theatre arts programme in Nigeria Colleges of Education. In recent times Nigeria gives much preference to youths training in employable skills. Therefore, Theatre Arts programme in Nigeria encompasses some courses that make it more entrepreneurial in practice among which is TiE. As a result, this paper made an attempt to strengthen the placement of TiE in the curriculum within the confines of the course title: THA 212 Children’s Theatre/ Drama in Education. Also, the paper pays attention to TiE and its relevance in the area of entrepreneurial skills suitability and beyond. These were elements critical that should be strengthened.
