School Curriculum
Pre-School:
The Montessori method of teaching is used at Imaginations School. The Montessori method addresses children's basic needs and allows them to naturally develop and make the most of their innate capabilities.
Montessori education is a multi-age, child-oriented method of education designed to assist children in their natural process of growth and development. Based on a profound respect for children, Montessori provides a structured environment for individual learning. The classrooms are prepared environments equipped with a full range of educational materials. Children's natural curiosity leads to exploration and learning.
Primary:
For the Primary Section, a rich blend of the British and Nigerian curriculum is used. This is to ensure the children have an international exposure whilst still staying true to their Nigerian roots. A lot of emphasis is placed on reading and the Jolly Phonics synthetic method used to teach Literacy encourages early reading by the children.
