Pupils Under EKOEXCEL Anticipate Improved Performances In Term 2

Pupils of Lagos State Public Primary schools have concluded their first-term examinations and commenced their vacation; they will be welcomed back to school for a new term on the 9th of January, 2023.

EKOEXCEL, an innovative digital initiative through the years has been a driving force of change in the Lagos State Basic education sector. It has transformed ECCDE and Primary education in all Lagos State government schools, bringing 21st Century education that is child-centered and enabled by modern practices and technology.

LEADERSHIP checks showed that the overall results for term 1 were remarkable; especially for female pupils who accounted for 49.19 per cent  of total registered pupils for term 1 given credence to the fact that  EKOEXCEL has continually ensured that no child is left behind in Lagos by conducting constant assessments throughout the term, intense revisions, and mock examinations.

In the same vein, review of term 1 using EKOEXCEL’s data generating system, Spotlight, an application that empowers head teachers and government leaders with the ability to track attendance and performance; see which lessons are working and how both teachers and children are doing, accessible via laptops, smartphones or tablets, indicated that an average of 97 per cent of head teachers were present through the term and an average 91% continuing pupils for the just concluded term.

One of the high points of term 1 was the tremendous achievements of three pupils under the EKOEXCEL programme representing Lagos State at the 25th annual JETS Competition, where John Daniel from St. Francis Primary School, Maryland, came second in the quiz competition, while two girls, Unique Emmanuel and Sarah Adeyemi of Monsuru Agoro Primary School, Mafoluku, took the third position in the project competition.
