Science

The Science Department constitutes an integral part of the school system. It provides professional teachers, knowledge, skills and ideas in the following subjects:

1. Agricultural Science;
2. Basic Science;
3. Biology;
4. Chemistry;
5. Physical and Health Education;
6. Physics, and
7. Trade (Animal Husbandry).

These subjects provide a solid foundation for students to choose careers like Medicine/Surgery, dentistry, Pharmacy, Veterinary Medicine, Biochemistry, Micro-Biology, Industrial Chemistry, Agriculture-related courses, Engineering courses, Medical Physics, etc. Students are exposed to a series of well-articulated practical sessions in the course of study. In fact, lessens are synchronized with practical classes to expedite teaching and learning. This has helped develop students with balanced knowledge.

Humanities

The Humanities Department seeks to develop in the child a ‘conscience’ more suited to the multicultural world in which we live. That ‘conscience’ might take a passive form that allows more effective self-reflection or it can extend into active empathy which facilitates the dispensation of civic duties in which a responsible world citizen must engage.

The department brings students face-to-face with what is happening in real life. It looks at the complete well-being of the human behavior. We organize nearly 60% of all excursions undertaken by the school as students are offered opportunities to visit different areas in Nigeria and outside Nigeria for purely academic purposes. We develops the following in the student:

1. Spiritual, moral, religious, faith, knowledge of the here-after, ability to relate well with their maker and also enjoy peaceful co-existence with one another.
2. Innate nature of man in administration, good governance, and also groom future leaders in line with the school’s motto: LEARN, LIVE and LEAD!
3. Fostering political consciousness and a good understanding of Nigeria’s political system.
4. Awareness of their fundamental human rights.
5. An exposure to other people’s culture.
6. Maximizing the resources within the environment.

The department comprises the following subjects:

1. Christian Religious Studies;
2. Civic Education;
3. Geography;
4. Government;
5. Islamic Religious Studies;
6. Library Studies, and
7. Social Studies.

We are HUMANITIES! We train character and academics. We add value to life!!

Guidance and Counseling

Counseling has always been referred to as the mother of all professions. Guidance-counselors are professionally trained to help people to be well adjusted socially, educationally, vocationally and emotionally. It is a known fact that without adequate and proper counsel, there cannot be a decent society, school or family. Therefore, guidance-counselors are very key and indispensable players in national development.

The department’s aims and objectives are:

1. To assist students in developing their potentials in order to be useful to themselves and the society at large.
2. To help our students make right choices in their different careers.
3. To help our students adjust well socially and educationally.
4. To complement teachers in the quest to achieve success in teaching / learning process.
5. To sensitize students on career opportunities available in local and international tertiary institutions.

7. To expose our students techniques of passing examinations without tears.
8. To serve as a bridge between ‘town’ and ‘gown’ in order to ensure the well-being of our students.
9. To complement the School Management in order to achieve set goals and policies.
10. To enlighten, educate and sensitize the school community on educational policies, teaching/learning techniques, examination administration, etc.

The department has been able to carry out, effectively, the following:

1. Individual and group counseling for students and adults;
