01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail

Samasa School of Steam is a learning institution that is aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice. It's major focus is to groom learners in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics by integrating all the subjects in the curriculum. The school will have classes from grade 1 to 12 where the learners will be introduced to STEAM concepts right from elementary classes. Lesson concepts will be activity based and hands on, allowing learners to apply theoretical concepts into solving real life problems.

01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

The standard of education in Nigeria is low and this is evident in the increase in number of graduands but decrease in job opportunities. Even with the few job opportunities, there are no skilled personnels to fill in the gap. Samasa School of STEAM wants to address this problem by building a school where learners are not only equipped with theoretical concepts but with the ability to apply these concepts learned in solving real life problems. Some of the major causes of this problem includes: 1. Lack of qualified and effective teachers 2. Local education 3. Poor school infrastructures 4. Lack of well equipped science and computer laboratory 5. Poor instructional materials

There are a lot of private schools in the Country. However Samasa School of STEAM will be the first international standard school in Lokoja, Kogi State part of Nigeria with a focus on the practical application of knowledge. The schools operate on the local or National curriculum but Samasa School of STEAM is going to be using World best curriculum such as that of Singapore, Canada, International Baccalaureate, and United States Next generation science standards which emphasizes on practicals. Usually, advance educational practices such as projects, designing, exhibitions and development are left for and after tertiary institutions but SSS wants to lay the foundation from the primary level of education so that by the time the learners are in the secondary level, they would have mastered how to easily apply knowledge to solve problems. Our students will see knowledge in the making and wouldn't have to memorize for National or West African exams, or depend on examination malpractice.
