Abstract: The study examined accessibility to public basic education facilities in Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State, Nigeria with a view to suggesting policy response in achieving sustainable education policies in Akinyele and others with similar setting. Systematic sampling technique was used in selecting 221 respondents aged 18years and above across the 12 political wards for questionnaire administration. Findings revealed that there is spatial inequality in the accessibility of respondents to public basic education facilities. This is based on their socioeconomic characteristic, and distance covered and travel time to public basic education facilities. The study recommends that government should ensure equitable provision of public basic education facilities and adequate accessibility among residents in the study area.
