- Our Curriculum
Curriculum
Pegasus schools runs a dual curriculum (British and Nigerian curricula) leading
students to the WASSCE and IGCSE examinations. Our teachers are specialists
in their subjects and are committed to transferring knowledge using modern
education tools and techniques in doing so.
It is our utmost concern that students enjoy the learning process and actively
seek out more information on their subject areas to broaden their understanding
of each lesson. Under the leadership of the Director of Studies, great attention is
given to the resources, curriculum and planning process of our academic
programmes.
Internal Assessments
Assignments and projects are given to students regularly to encourage the culture of research, team work and personal development. Team projects are greatly encouraged to foster the spirit of leadership and team work among our students. Students undergo a compulsory terminal examination to test their academic standpoint enabling teachers know what their strong points are and areas that need improvement before various qualifying external examinations commence.
External Assessments
External examinations taken by our students include the West African Senior
Secondary School Certificate examination (WASSCE) taken in class 12 and
Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE)
examinations.
All students’ assessments are done independently with zero tolerance for
examination misconduct. Students are supported through intervention methods
after all internal assessments in preparation for external assessments that will
qualify students for progression to university. Our classes are small to
encourage one on one learning experience between teacher and students.

Our system undergoes rigorous modifications to adopt the best methods of developing our students. One of these methods being our newly launched E- learning platform that will grant our students access to learning materials virtually. We are always learning on how best to transfer knowledge, guide our students and prepare them for a fast changing and highly competitive world. Their successes is our honour.
Pastoral Care
In our quest for excellence, the focus in Pegasus Schools is not restricted to training only academically outstanding students. We are concerned with the personal, social, moral and cultural development of every child. This births individuals that are prepared to function independently, diligently and with integrity at all times.
At Pegasus, students hold leadership positions both representing the class and the student body. They are selected based on merit and display of exemplary traits in both learning and character. This does not stop the assignment of duties to other students to teach them how to take responsibility and manage themselves and others accordingly.
