If you describe a system or organization as a citadel of a particular way of life, usually one you may disapprove of, it could mean that it is powerful and effective in defending that way of life. It is on this note that we refer to Merosa Academy as a citadel of learning. There are several reasons you should bring your children to Merosa Academy.
First, it is generally accepted that there cannot be adequate learning in an unconducive environment. We are known for our high class facility standard. Our structures are first class as they are well equipped with mind blowing technology. Our classrooms are decorated with smart boards that are internet connected. Merosa Academy provides a safe learning and conducive learning environment, in and outside the classroom for the students and pupils. Our School is decorated with pictorial images and charts that aid learning and they also communicate our encouragement to open expression. We celebrate pupils/students that are disciplined and promote good characters with guidelines that check negative behaviours such as bullying.
We embedded in our programme of study the British-Nigerian curriculum which is clearly apparent when you encounter our students and pupils. It is a curriculum that shapes the mind of children towards self-development in an ever-changing society. Of course, this will help create a solid balance when they step into a competitive society like ours today. Merosa Academy operates a dual curriculum educational system with the combination of the British and the Nigerian curriculum to enable our pupils/students to fit into any system and compete adequately both in Nigeria and abroad.
Our kindergarten program utilizes preschool curriculum. The focusing key areas are: Numeracy, Literacy and communication, knowledge of the world (science), personal, social and emotional development (PSED), Creative and Expressional Art; and different approaches to learning.
The kindergarten “purposeful play” acts as a means of developing students’ love for lifelong learning, thus acquiring important life skills that meet their social, physical, intellectual, cultural, creative and emotional needs.
Our primary school programme emphasises on the higher order thinking skills to challenge and stimulate students in English language, Art (Speaking, listening, reading and writing), Mathematics, History/Geography and Science. Our focus is to create independent, life-long and excited confident learners who, not only take pride in their cultural heritage, but also in their global identity.
It has been on our record that we focus on the need of the child as well as the desires of our parents in order to make sure that their desires meet their expectations. Our vision is: To Set the Pace in raising highly responsive leaders in the ever-changing global Community. What would be the need and value of education if it cannot transform a people or translate a vision into a reality?
According to Oprah Winfrey: “Education is the key to unlocking the world, a passport to freedom.” In Merosa Academy, we have developed a clear communication system which cannot be faulted as parents are part of our development plan. Channels of communication have been put in place to ensure adequate relay of information in the system.
Today, we live in a world of different kinds of health challenges, but in Merosa Academy Abuja, Nigeria, we are bravely and decisively handling the difficulties of the pandemic. As Chinua Achebe in Things Fall Apart would say, “…since some hunters have learnt to shoot without missing, Eneke the bird have decided to fly without perching.” In Merosa Academy, we have also created health emergency system supported with facilities and qualified personnel.
Here in Merosa Academy, we have dependable and reliable transport system, serene learning environment, adequate power system and backups, well equipped ICT labs and other science base laboratories as well as language and music/arts studios.
What is the need of education and even life if security cannot be guaranteed. We have professionally trained security agents who have prioritized the safety of lives and property. Facilities like the CCTV cameras with night and day vision are installed both in open and hidden spots to back up our security system.
I echo the words of Norman Vincent Peale, “…change your thoughts and you change your world.” This is where Merosa Academy Abuja has drawn its strength and formula. In our schools, we have succeeded in carefully selected great and qualified staff and teachers that we have trained and retrained to make sure our words measure up to the results we expect. Our teachers and other management and administrative staff have been groomed to respond to issues in good time, creatively and efficiently.
Merosa Academy is accessible to parents from different routes and direction. Its location eases movement in and out of the school. At Merosa Academy, we train, nurture pupils and students to prepare them for the future and not just to pass examination (which is also our ultimate goal). We train our students to prepare for the future challenges and leave their footprints on the sand of their time.
Now you know the reasons why you should bring your child to MEROSA ACADEMY!
Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think” At Merosa we get the Early Years Kids involved in extra-curricular activities such Music, Sport, Drama to build mental and physical balance early in life
