The state of a school in Ikorodu

17 year old genius develops maths theory that calculates problemsfaster than a COMPUTER - so do you have any idea how he did it?





  • He was offered a place at university at 14, but chose to stay in high school



  • He says school was in the way of his research, but will soon sit for his final exams
  • Are you raising a Genius?


    Everybody wants their children to be a genius but have you ever wondered what makes a child to be genius? is it the IQ, academic intelligence or environmental influence? how do we even know as to what extent can our smartness be inherited? this issue has long been an academic war zone among experts. no matter how we look at it we need to understand some basic things that can help us boost that child's smartness and they are mostly overlooked by parents for example.

    Boys are more Hardwork than Girls, do you agree?




    have a Son and two Daughters, my Son taught my daughters all the rough play and activites they know but this is not the story of Patricia. Patricia Nkwocha 37 hails from Portharcourt and she believes that it is easier to raise boys than girls because they are more manageable. I believe this is when they are much older, but before you get to that stage, there is always a price to pay. On the other hand girls are so adorable and tender, they want to play with their dolls most of the time etc. having a girl means having a peaceful home. 
    I really don't know which is easier, I have them both but my girls are better off as boys than girls. Infact I don't consider myself as a mother of one boy and two girls I believe I have 3 boys. But in your opinion which is more manageable? Tell us.

    Welcome to my Blog

    Hi,

    Welcome to Skool and Kids blog, here we talk about schools within the Federal capital city and issues concerning our kids.

    I have witnessed often times, many parents (including myself) who have found themselves in tough situations over which or what school to send their kids to within the FCT. A lot of us are faced with issues like getting value for our money, we think some big schools have more to offer academically, socially and morally. However many not so big schools also have good ratings but are overlooked; so here we are ready to help you find that school and also help our schools get the much needed recognition.

    Our kids most importantly are unique and the most special part of our existence ( if you are a parent you know what I mean) therefore we need to pay as much attention to them as we pay ourselves. There's no greater investment like investment in our kids. Therefore we are ready to share with you and with each other how to raise, care, improve, teach moral values to our kids and how to guide our children towards a quality education. So let's get this rocking...lol.

    Tutu Adefope.
