Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, which started on a modest note way back in 1970 as Advanced Teachers College (ATC) at a temporary site in Sokoto town, was then the first fully State-owned Advanced Teachers College in the Northern States of Nigeria. It commenced operation precisely on 14th October, 1970 with an initial intake of sixty-seven (67) students and six (6) teaching staff. The primary purpose of its establishment was to address the acute shortage of post-primary school teachers in the then North-Western State, following rapid educational expansion at both primary and post-primary school levels. The College moved to its present permanent site in June 1974, and has to date, been headed by fourteen Chief Executives at different times under different nomenclatures.
