Our Ideal School 2

TEACHING - LEARNING ASPECTS:
The students should have more project works so that they can enlarge
their creativity.

There should be a specific period where the teachers and the students can share new ideas and knowledge about different and innovative things.

The students must be allowed to the extra curriculums, as some students might like singing and dancing and others might have interest in sports.

Study tours should be organized each year to allow students swell their knowledge about certain things.

CURRICULUM:
Every school needs a curiculum upon which every subjects, extracurricular activities are based on.

The adpoted school curriculum should be well implemented and adequately followed.

SOCIETAL BALANCE:
The students should also have idea about their culture and society.

The teachers are the most important part, because an ideal school must have ideal teachers.

There have impactful, colourful school evemts frequently

The students will learn from their teachers just like a new born baby learns from his parents.

TEACHING STAFF:
The teachers must be well trained and adequate enough.

Besides having the ability to teach the teacher should also know how to motivate the students.

Our Teachers should be of integrity, modesty, true role models, approachable.

Our whole life depends on how we grow up just like a building depends on Its foundation.

An ideal school can be said to be:

It is intellectually stimulating.

It is safe.

It has positive energy.

It reflects the interests and cultures of all the students.

It is a place students wouldn’t mind visiting even if they weren’t in class.

It reflects the challenges students have faced and conquered within its walls.

It is a place in which studying the English language is interesting, fun, challenging, and seems worth every minute.

It is a place of change and growth brought about by learning.

It uses other types of tests that affect the psychomotor, affective domain of a child apart from the standardized tests are not accurate measures of intellectual growth and only make students anxious about going to school.

Some of this looks unachievable for schools just starting up and a lot of fund is required, Nigerians why not unite with other small schools around the location legally to do big things as one.

This shows that we love each other more and the impact in the lives of our students are more important than our egos.
