Dear Parents/Guardian,
First Term Newsletter
It is heartwarming to pull through to the end of a successful term. We are grateful to God Almighty for his love and protection all through the term. We wish to appreciate all our parents for collaborating and believing in us as we resumed our blended learning program. We wish to reassure you of our continued compliance with global trends of innovations in the field of education. We created an engaging environment and with your support our children have developed more skills, confidence and love for learning.
Progress report: our cognitive assessment which was generated based on continuous assessment and examination score showed significant advancement across the classes. Most children who were struggling last session had raised grades. The utilization of KPI (Key Performance Index) yielded good results. Similarly, early morning lessons for year 5 class have since kicked-off. We appeal to parents to partner with us by ensuring their child’s early arrival for the lessons.
