Ojugo, who also emphasised capacity building as imperative for, said the school will continue to prioritise teacher training and provide necessary resources to support them.

While announcing the theme for the new school year as “IGNITE #DeeperHolisticLearning,” Ojugo said the plan is to intensify initiatives introduced in the last school year.

She said, “The theme was inspired by how far we were able to go last year with our ‘Future Ready #DrivenByValue’ theme. We introduced a number of initiatives in the previous school year, like coding in all class categories, Value-Based Education (VbE), Nigerian Languages in Pre-school, and establishment of Centres of Excellence on different campuses, among others. As we dug into each aspect, it became clear to us that there was still more depth to go, particularly in the production of tangibles to showcase our students’ learning. This inspired the new school year’s theme to deepen our holistic educational approach.”
