Corona School has emphasised the integration of leadership, entrepreneurial skills, and robotics into the academic curriculum.
It said it would equip students with the essential edge to remain competitive and prepare them to become future change-makers.
Speaking during the launch of its new three-story block for its secondary school in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos, recently, Adeyoyin Adesina, CEO of Corona Schools’ Trust Council, said they were also leveraging technological advancements such as robotics, as it has become obvious that they need to prepare their students for future career opportunities. Adesina further explained that education has assumed a new dimension as students are now eager to explore new career paths, hence the need to imbibe a method of teaching that opens their minds beyond any measurable reach; motivates them to take ownership and craft their vision even at this tender age.
“We ensure consistent engagement with parents in the delivery of education to their children. It is not just enough for them to pay for their education and then go away. We have seen that our students are better when they have commensurate support from the home front as well,” Adesina said.
He added that the new facility was one of the school’s commitments to high standards of always providing a conducive and convenient environment for learning.
Sitting on a large expanse of land, the new building boasts contemporary amenities such as state-of-the-art classrooms.
Interactive screens for optimal learning, fully equipped laboratories, a contemporary cafeteria, a meeting room for staff members, a lift, a ramp, and other complimentary amenities for students with special needs.
To ensure the safety of users, the building is also equipped with CCTV, fire alarms, and access control to ensure only eligible students and staff can gain access.
According to the Governing Board Chairperson of Corona Schools’ Trust Council, Justice Raliat Adebiyi, the school will soon commence boarding facilities to meet the demand of parents, thereby, making it the first Corona Secondary School in Lagos State.
Congratulating the school on its latest feat, a member of the House of Representatives representing Ibeju-Lekki Federal Constituency, Mr Bayo Balogun, remarked that Corona School had become a household brand in the educational sector owing to its ability to distinguish itself over the years.
