Unfortunately, years of schooling don't always lead to greater human capital. We need to pay closer attention to actual learning happing in schools, not only the enrollment numbers.
In policy implementation, the window of opportunity is of the utmost importance. The pandemic created many struggles, but it also gave some opportunities, and it's wise to use them.
Congratulations to the participants of the #nextgenforesight Practicioners Award who got to present their projects at #ESPAS19.
#Foresight requires inclusion of pluralist views and backgrounds, and these young practitioners set great examples of how this can be done!

Congratulations to our dear Alum, Mrs Adeiye Oluwaseun-Sobo @adeiye_o on being recognised as the @CoronaSchools#TeacherOfTheYear. You have an excellent Spirit in you and we join in celebrating your impact on the next generation of Nigerians.

I say it any where, I am a #ProudCoronaAlumnaTeacherAndParent

You can understand that when it came time for my daughter to start school @seunshobo and I didnโt lose sleep at all. We knew we wanted her to have the same thing I had. The legacy that has been built and developed through the years. The legacy that is Corona.
Within those walls and without, I started to understand who I was. Things that interested me were identified, I started to dream. Today, those dreams are alive because I was taught to pursue, no matter how intimidating.

Itโs amazing how I remember clearly my first day @coronaschoolstrustcouncil as a pupil almost three decades ago. It was at the Apapa Day Nursery of @corona_school_apapa
So much went on in my 7 years through nursery and primary. Life defining. Life changing.
One thing always resonates, โAdeiye, this comes easy simply because you had good teachers who made your learning fun such that you donโt recall โhavingโ to learn. What you recall years down the line is that you had a fantastic foundation.โ
From @adeiye_o I walked through the doors @coronaschoolstrustcouncil after I made up my mind to become a teacher about 7 years ago. Through the years Iโve facilitated learning in my classrooms @coronaschool_lekki and @coronaschool_vi
