ACADEMIC CURRICULUM

The school has taken a significant approach in making sure that the learning experiences exposed to the students are in line with the modern precepts of education. Without any iota of skepticism. We know that it is only applied knowledge that is power and knowing fully well that longevity in error does not make it right this dictum has given us reasons to focus on the academic wellbeing of our students thereby finding ways of eliminating ignorance.

Because we believe that for effective learning to take place and for a desirable behavior to be achieved, the learner must be dispensed in an environment where they can learn, unlearn and relearn as to meeting up with the contemporary demands of the society.

Great to hear that our methods of teaching are in line with Williams model which is continued or cyclical in nature by implications are very flexible to accommodate the functional approaches in education.
