The Corona Schools’ Trust Council has approved for its schools to run crèche, playschool and after-school services.
A statement by its Chief Executive Officer, Mrs. Adeyoyin Adesina, said the services were introduced to support parents who work long hours in the office.
With a 62-year legacy of running successful primary and secondary schools in Lagos and Ogun states, Mrs Adesina said parents should be sure of their wards’ safety while at work.
She said the expansion aligned with the Trust’s vision and mission statements to provide quality education, adding that the crèche would accept babies whose ages range from three months, 15 months; and the playschool, toddlers 18 months to three years. She added that the Corona After-school Enrichment Services (CASES) will run between 2.30pm to 6.00pm daily.
While in the schools’ care, Mrs Adesina said: “Parents and guardians should be rest assured that there are clearly defined structures, age appropriate facilities and personnel that ensure that all the schools are safe and conducive for care, play and learning.”
Mrs Adesina said the cost of services would match the quality the Corona Schools are known for.
She assured parents that safety and safeguarding issues have also been prepared for.
“Established structures in our schools include documented policies and processes on health, safety and security. These are periodically tested and updated as appropriate.
“Compliance is enforced and the entire school community – pupils, employees and so on are educated and very familiar with health, safety and security procedures and emergency response and escalation channels. We maintain necessary relationships with the government agencies charged with these responsibilities in the state to enhance our efforts,” she said.
