A cross-section of parents and strategic partners of Premiere Academy, Abuja, has lauded the school’s extensive curriculum and high academic standards as playing huge roles in fashioning out a holistic support and learning systems that have continued to help students excel on many fronts.
The commendation came on the heels of the impressive performances of the students in the recently released results of the 2024 West African Senior Secondary Certificate Examinations (WASSCE). The results show that the school again recorded a 100 per cent pass rate with all the 107 students registered achieving the minimum University entry requirement of five credits, including English Language and General Mathematics.
Further breakdown reveals that over 60 per cent of the students scored A1 in, at least, five of the nine subjects written. While eight students had eight A1s, nine had seven A1s and 16 had six A1s with over 30 others recording 5 A1s. Also, 54 out of the 107 students scored A1 in General Mathematics.
A joyous parent of one of the students who preferred anonymity described the students’ impressive results as a testimony to the giant strides the school has always recorded in many areas of academic and non-academic exploits. According to her, “From the Mathematics Olympiad to STEM and several other co-curricular competitions, the students have always done marvelously, at least in the top three brackets of schools in the FCT and its environs. Same thing in NECO, UTME and other external examinations. To cap it all, the Maltina Teacher of the Year for the FCT is from the School. So, it does not take much effort to see the fruits of the tradition of excellence that defines the School. And this 2024 WASSCE performance is the icing on the cake for me.”
A few other parents who also expressed their happiness with the results but refused to have their identities disclosed in print also praised the students and the school management for giving parents good returns on investments made and justifying their confidence in the school.
During a chat with journalists on the 2024 WASSCE results and the attendant positive commendation of the school by the parents, Director of Academics and Administration, Chris Akinsonwon, attributed the school’s many success stories to “the consistent, massive investments made by the School Board and owners as well as the fluid cooperation between the Board and Management on the one hand and between the Management and parents plus other strategic partners on the other.”
He saluted the parents for trusting the school and complementing the Management’s efforts in ensuring that the students have the best learning environment possible, whether in or out of session and stressed the school’s commitment to ensuring that students would always receive well-rounded education that could help them rub shoulders with the best of their contemporaries globally.
Mr. Akinsonwon also promised that the school would remain firmly committed to its culture of ethics, hardwork, discipline and integrity at all times.
“The school stands for the promotion of holistic education that reflects growing global trends and aspirations; and we understand the importance of facilitating for our students opportunities that expose them to cutting-edge technologies, knowledge and skills in diverse fields of Study to make them aspire to be the best they can.
“We shall continue to re-invent and evolve our systems and environments in line with emerging global trends to not only set our students on a path of academic excellence but to also ensure that they are well-rounded in other vital areas of life with essential life skills that foster confidence, creativity, teamwork and all-round leadership so that they can be fully ready to make the Society better when their time comes,” he stated.
