Care
for the Individual
Children need security and
will find it here within a many-layered system of tutorial care
designed to develop self-confidence. We have a reputation as a friendly
school with a family atmosphere. As with the best families, great
care is taken to ensure that boys and girls are given individual
attention.
Tutors offer support and
advice through frequent contact with pupils and parents. They seek
to monitor academic, cultural and physical progress, and to ensure
that each of their pupils can find opportunities to excel as well
as be self-disciplined and accept responsibility from an early stage
and, ultimately, to play a significant part in the life of the school.
Good pastoral care is at the heart of academic success.
Although there are of course
formal parents’ visiting days, all parents are welcome to
contact the school at any time and are encouraged to do so.
Enriching
the Curriculum
Many pupils gain as much success
outside the classroom as they do within it. We place a high degree
of value upon the range of enrichment and extra-curricular activities
that run throughout the academic year.
Thomas Adewumi International
College has a reputation for promoting cultural and artistic activities
as well as taking part in Music Festivals and being a centre for
music making within the community. During the college year we also
stage presentations of Concerts, Plays, Evenings of Cultural Expression
as well as Art Exhibitions.
Throughout the year pupils
take part in excursions, field trips, visits to Museums, places
of historic interest, centres of production, universities and technological
institutes.
Life Beyond
School
Over 95% of Thomas Adewumi
International Colleges' pupils progress to a course of higher education
at university either at home or overseas. The wide range of degree
courses followed reflects the broad education offered here.
The
Ex-Pupils’ Association
The college’s involvement
with its pupils does not end when they leave. The Ex-Pupils’
Association exists to help former pupils and teachers to keep in
touch with each other, and to further the interests of both the
Association and College.
There is an annual reunion
at the college and other events are organized throughout the year.
Former pupils are always
welcome at the college and their eventual offspring even more so.
From JSS1 to the Ex-Pupils’ Association, Thomas Adewumi International
Colleges' involvement with its pupils is a life-long affair.
