Our School
As a fully registered preschool to high school in Lagos State, Calidan Schools was able to accept 20 new students at the beginning of the new school year in 2018, bringing the total number of students to 84. Of these, 40 students are grant recipients and 44 are fee-paying students. The staff consists of 12 full-timeteachers and 4 full-time non-teaching staff members. We continue to provide one meal a day for our grant recipients, as most parents/caregivers are unable to do so.
The students continue to show improvements academically and emotionally, as a result of their basic needs being met. Their overall well-being and confidence is a direct result of the loving care of our devoted team of educators.
In addition to a meal-a-day, Calidan Schools presently provides accommodation for some of our grant recipients, whose parents/caregivers are unable to afford the daily commute to and from school, due to the location of the new facility. This helps reduce the school dropout rate among the students.
