In a bid to improve educational activities, Royal College Ibadan is set to take learning to another height.
This is well expressed by the new management under the Catholic Church - the Congregation of the Servants of Charity.
Royal College Ibadan was approved by the government in 1996 as a centre for qualitative, effective and creative education, with the mind of turning out students who are prepared to face the rigour and challenges of the higher institution. It is located in a serene and conducive atmosphere that is good for learning. This accounts for the widespread popularity of the school in Ibadan.
According to the principal, Mrs Olajumoke Olagbade, the world should expect to see a better Royal College under the new management come September 2016 when a new session begins. She emphasised that arrangements are in place to upgrade the facilities of the school for greater output of students’ performance. She therefore appealed to parents to be on the watch out for a new Royal College where standard would not be compromised.
Mrs Olajumoke Olagbade added that the Royal College Ibadan offers evening tutorials for external candidates of West African Examination Council (WAEC), National Examinations Council (NECO) Unified Tertiary
Matriculations Examination (UTME) and computer literacy.
Also affirming the school as a good school, the Head Boy (Obe Bolaji) said: "we go for educational activities, which includes debates, quiz and also engage in co- curricular activities every Friday afternoon between the
hours of 12pm to 2pm" In her words, the Head Girl (Eke Vivian) said: " the school is a co-educational school where intimate relationship exists between the management and the students" The Vice Principal while announcing that registration into all classes is in progress, further added that new intake are welcome in September when the session will begin.
