Abstract: In contemporary times, Nigeria’s education system has been perceived as substandard, ineffective and inefficient, hence, the much discussions on quality. Quality assurance was introduced into the Nigerian education system in order to help raise the standard of Nigerian education and restore its fallen quality. This is the reason why all educational stakeholders are interested in quality assurance and quality education. Nigerian schools need to improve in all ramifications including teaching and learning, research and community services. Whenever there is school improvement, then one will be sure that quality education has been achieved and can be sustained to a large extent. Nigerians on regular basis dream of living in a country where quality education is attainable where the graduates from schools can be innovative and creative where graduates create employment opportunities for themselves through engaging in entrepreneurship activities and so on. All activities of the Nigerian government and the general public including educational reforms and policies are geared towards achieving school improvement. Quality assurance and quality education in all ramifications can help in achieving school improvement if attained. These are the crux of the paper.
