NEW HOPE NURSERY AND PRIMARY SCHOOL


This Section of the Complex are often considered as the bedrock of the complex. All started here and this section gave birth, as it were, to the Secondary Section.

Created in the year 2000, this section is divided into three sub parts English and French sub systems of Education.

  • Kindergarten
  • Nursery
  • Primary.

The Kindergarten is an ideal day care centre that takes care of children from 1 years plus. Here, we provide all nappies, wipes, resources and equipment to initiate your child into the world of education.  We expect parents to provide food for their kids while we handle the feeding in school. We equally ask that parents provide a bottle for each child to have at all times to encourage them to drink lots of water.

The Nursery Section follows a thought out routine designed in partnership with the national calendar, to best suit the needs of the children. This includes learning the alphabet, shapes, colors, numbers, letter formation, word building, and just to name a few. These provide a great foundation for good future progress through school and life. The Nursery Section is further divided into three subsections which are as follows;-

  • Pre – Nursery
  • Nursery 1
  • Nursery II

 The Pre – Nursery level handle children from 3 years and more. Our work at this level is based on the believe that

  • Each child is unique with a constantly learning capability
  • Each child has the ability to learn to be strong and independent through positive relationship
  • In every enabling environment, children learn and develop well.

Nursery 1 receives kids who are four years and more, while Nursery 2 deals with kids who are five years and more prepared for primary school.

The Nursery Section in general is bilingual in its training.

The Primary Section is sub divided into two groups;-

  • English sub system of education Section
  • French sub system of educatio  Section

With each section having complete courses; - that is from class one to class six for Anglophones and from Sil to CM II for the Francophone. Ongoing formative assessment is at the centre of our training. Here, we follow a sequential program during which evaluation is carried out after every six weeks. There are a total of six sequences partitioned as follows;-

1st and 2nd sequences make up the first term, 3rd and 4th sequences make up the second term, while the third term is then made up of the 5th and the 6th sequences.

The complex runs a temporal service (school buses) that helps to bring students to school from far neighborhoods and back to their homes.
