Our aim is to lay the foundation of a life-long educational experience, which will give the individual confidence and respect that will overcome all distinctions of race, class, colour and creed. We also wish to develop in our pupils and students a consciousness of the needs of society and the desire to contribute positively through selfless service, putting the totality of God-given talents and acquired knowledge to the service of humanity.
We believe that all Nigeria children in schools are members of a privileged minority, regardless of social and economic standing, and we owe them a duty to provide the highest possible standard of education. The school’s philosophy embraces internationalism in its widest sense. Education is a global phenomenon; as such, we seek excellence wherever it is to be found and use it to raise our standards.
We believe in educating the whole person, so that every pupils and student leaves the school well-equipped to achieve individual goals and with a sense of commitment, social responsibility and enthusiasm. Our pupils and students are encouraged to think creatively and independently. The spirit of healthy competition and cooperation is encouraged through sports and other activities. In this way, they learn about leadership and teamwork – the glory of winning and the importance of losing gracefully, yet with a determination to strive to do better next time.
Students enjoy a wide range of activities from team sports, music, science clubs and languages with a particular focus on French. These activities are carefully selected to give your child a wonderful balance to learning. They also develop relationship skills and raise self esteem. Students who may be struggling academically find their confidence boosted when they discover a new talent or skill!
Joan Academy is to empower students to acquire, demonstrate articulate and value knowledge and skills that will support them, as life-long learners, to participate in and contribute to the global world and practice the core values of the school which are respect, tolerance and excellence.
To develop sensitivity to the needs of both self and others, to develop awareness of moral, social and religious values, to prepare pupils for the next stage of their education and adult life, to work in partnership with parents, governors and other professionals to deliver the agreed aims of the school.
