4.0 Market Analysis Summary

Private schools, also known as independent schools, are not administered by local, state or national

governments; thus, they retain the right to select their students and are funded in whole or in part by charging

their students tuition, rather than relying on public (government) funding, students can get a scholarship into a

private school which makes the cost cheaper depending on a talent the student may have e.g. art scholarship,

academic scholarship etc. In the Nigeria and several African countries as well as other Commonwealth

countries, the use of the term is generally restricted to primary and secondary educational levels; it is almost

never used of universities and other tertiary institutions. Private education in some part of the county covers the

whole gamut of educational activity, ranging from pre-school to tertiary level institutions.

Tuition at private secondary schools varies from school to school and depends on many factors, including the

location of the school, the willingness of parents to pay, peer tuitions and the school's financial endowment.
High tuition, schools claim, is used to pay higher salaries for the best teachers and also used to provide enriched

learning environments, including a low student to teacher ratio, small class sizes and services, such as libraries,

science laboratories and computers. Some private schools are boarding schools and many military academies

are privately owned or operated as well.

Religiously affiliated and denominational schools form a subcategory of private schools. Some such schools

teach religious education, together with the usual academic subjects to impress their particular faith's beliefs and

traditions in the students who attend. Our institution will produce a generation of scholars that are Qur’anically

sound, sunnatically engineered which aids them the ability and capacity to understand their religion.

Private schooling in the Nigeria has been debated by educators, lawmakers and parents, since the beginnings of

compulsory education in 1982, Nigeria switched to the America system of six primary, three junior secondary,

and three senior secondary school grade. The Supreme Court precedent appears to favor educational choice, so

long as states may set standards for educational accomplishment.

4.1 Market Segmentation

According to Daily Trust in one of its report, in a Kaduna community primary school are so highly populated

that 250 pupils or more sit in a classroom, some of the on the bare floor. Kaduna State under Governor Nasir El-

Rufai has through its free basic education and school feeding programme been able to achieve a fast growing

school-age population but it is facing difficulty in the area of offering quality education to the increasing

populace, looking at these challenges our institution had identified some of the problems and working

passionately toward providing fast and everlasting solution as the market segment shows a future and fast grow

as the governor himself while presenting his 2018 budget proposal to the state assembly mentioned that the state

education policy had raised primary school enrollment from 1.1million to 2.1million. Our main mission to

Kaduna state as UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE market segment is the solve the facing difficulty

in the area of offering quality education to the increasing populace and to build the child for exploit, including

bringing out the talents and best aspirations of the individual child, instill into the child a sense of discipline and

responsibility and make the child spiritually and morally upright as well as prepare the child towards the

inevitable role in leadership of tomorrow.

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy


While the Kaduan North, Rigasa and Rigachikun segment will remain the core focus of the company, much

time will be dedicated to developing the children of all our covered area and other students as projected to be of

Kaduna State decent and will be comprised of all ethnicities). The company’s goal is to have the best education

in mathematics, science and history comparable to top schools in the world, making the children internationally

aware. This is a mere matter of population dynamics. Maintaining and further enhancing its reputation in the

community is crucial to gaining additional market share of these target markets.

provide quality education and care for children in the same area as UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLECE.

Ministry of Education provision in line with the UBE programme and registered by Corporate Affair

individual child to light, instill into the child a sense of discipline and responsibility, also to make the child

5.0 Strategy and Implementation Summary

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE will succeed by offering its client' children a safe and secure

environment and close personal attention. The goals of the school dual-sided; to help parents feel good about

the care their children's education and to make it a safe, educational and fun experience for the child.

The school will create individuals that have the best education in all standard subjects; however, they will also

have training in spiritual and moral values, ethical application and a holistic approach to conducting their lives

5.1 SWOT Analysis

The SWOT analysis provides UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE with an opportunity to examine the

internal strengths and weaknesses the Company must address. It also allows the opportunity to examine the

opportunities presented to UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE as well as potential threats.

5.1.1 Strengths

Currently few other private school of any grade level offer qualitative services to solve the problem of inability

of children/pupils to be able to read and write at the primary level. Few other schools are not as proactive about

providing the child’s overall well-rounded physical, emotional, educational and cultural needs.

There are cultural and language classes that children of Nigeria can attend outside of the regular school

curriculum; in Kaduna state though we have schools that are doing their best but more need to be done, our

establishment will offers an excellent education along with meeting the cultural needs with religion injunction

of Islam in our possible best anywhere in the in Nigeria.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE in the process of getting commitments from key individuals to
serve on the Board, The CEO will serve as a working officer and will also serve on the board. UNIQUE
ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE currently has commitments from two well known individuals with an
academic background and will have the other members confirmed in the near future.
5.1.2 Weaknesses

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE must differentiate the school as an upstanding organization,

contrary to what are statistically reported as the downside of sending a child to a private school:

• Cost.

• No special education classes available.

• Students must pass an entrance exam to be admitted.

5.1.3 Opportunities

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE has a growing market with a significant percentage of the primary

target market, Kaduna population in the Nigeria, still not knowing that this future option exists. UNIQUE

ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE will also be forming strategic alliances offering sources for referrals and

joint marketing activities to extend reach.

Changes and increases of Kaduna populations in enrolment of children into primary school as reported by

governor El-Rufai in his budget presentation in 2018 from 1.1million to 2.1million student present opportunities

for private school to fit into the system in other to solve the problems of non-qualitative education service in

highly concentrated communities in Metropolitan areas ( Rigasa, Rigachikun and Kaduna North) our

headquarter is sited also is an indication of promising bright future for the UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLECE. The opportunity for future expansion and opening additional schools in these areas is the

Company's vision.

Some other important points of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE's opportunities are:

• Growing market with a significant percentage of our target market still not knowing this school will exist.

• Promising activity from high levels of exploding Kaduna State population.

• Increasing sales opportunities beyond the school's "100-mile" target area including several smaller

surrounding communities and students from overseas.

• Create a separate boarding school facility offering the same teachings and services.

5.1.4 Threats

The downturn in the economy the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has impacted private school attendance

across the country. UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE will keep in mind that the Company must keep

tuition and other associated costs well monitored both the school and the parents of the students attending.
5.2 Competitive Edge

Private schools in Nigeria have standard of discipline. Students with discipline problems are fewer in private

schools than in public schools; this is because private schools have a way of scrutinizing students before

admitting them.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLECE seeks to establish a competitive edge in its target market by

increasing the level of education standards with the instilment of discipline not only within a private school, but

also with in the community, offering Arabic studies and languages in addition to other designed curriculum

studies and languages.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE Values

Be asked. Be answered.

Explored a global school with local roots where teachers challenge you, laugh with you, listen to you and

learn with you.

The UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE Mission Statement “Our main mission is to build the

child for exploit, including bringing out the talents and best aspirations of the individual child, instill into the

child a sense of discipline and responsibility and make the child spiritually and morally upright as well as

prepare the child towards the inevitable role in leadership of tomorrow”.

At UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE we believe…

- The individual learner is at the centre of all that we do

- Every learner is an individual and is to be respected, valued, and nurtured

- Every learner has a ‘voice’ and that this voice should be listened to and encouraged.

- We must strive always to make learning successful and we can do this best by skilful teaching (having the

highest possible expectations), of a relevant, creative, exciting school curriculum (both in and out of lessons),

supportive school structures, and by a real partnership with families.

We understand that excellent relationships are vital to this happening. We believe we need to develop the

whole child and encourage confidence and selfesteem.

We believe we need to recognise and celebrate everyone's achievements.


Specific features of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE is a creative school

The creative arts are used to provide opportunities for learners to learn how to express themselves, to develop

self-esteem, thinking skills, confidence and a sense of achievement. To enrich this important aspect of the

curriculum we invite creative practitioners to work in school and develop exciting and innovative practice.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE is an enterprising school

Our social enterprise “The UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE entrepreneur center” is located in the

heart of the local community. This “living classroom” provides exceptional opportunities for all learners to

develop their independence skills. It offers a hub for work – related learning. In partnership with

________________ College the UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE entrepreneur center enables

extended learning opportunities through the school’s “Learning 4 Work” scheme which is an integral part of

extra-curriculum activities.

Our shared responsibilities

We recognise that time in full-time education is limited and precious, and we are duty bound not to waste it.

Our curriculum must be delivered in safe, supportive yet challenging learning environment in which all

members of our school community are valued, respected and enabled to succeed.

We have a duty to each learner and their family to.

 Work in partnership with parents and carers, and the wider family

 Work in collaboration with therapists and other professionals.

 Ensure that all our learners have opportunities to learn and enjoy the wider community.

 Be inclusive in our practice

 Be outward looking in our vision and approach.

 Be positive and optimistic

 Give of our best at all times

 Recognise that everyone is a learner and that every experience is a learning opportunity
 Empower each learner to achieve fulfilled futures.

Our Curriculum

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE provides a curriculum tailored to the learning, emotional,

sensory and physical needs of each young person. This is described as “My Curriculum” (see student’s

handbook).

Working at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE - Guidance for staff

Each young person at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE is:

 Vulnerable (some physically, some medically, others emotionally).

 Dependent on adults

 Capable of bringing joy and a sense of worth for those fortunate enough to work with them.

Each learner needs adults who understand them and are able provide the care and support they need. The

majority of young people will make physical and emotional demands that can, on occasions, feel relentless

and overwhelming. At UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE there are systems of support, including

the leadership team. It is important that adults are familiar with these supports and make use of them.

The learners at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE don’t care what job an adult does (Head,

caretaker, mid-day assistant or volunteer) they need to be with adults who are able to give of their best

(always).

Each learner needs adults who are:

 resilient

 understanding

 emphatic

 generous

 forgiving
Team work is essential - in isolation, no one adult is able to meet the complex needs and demands of the

learners at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE, this can only be achieved if all the adults work as

part of a team.

Each learner needs every member of the UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE team (cleaners,

caretakers, administration staff, apprentices, teachers, tutors, assistants, coaches, nursery nurses, ) to strive

to always.

 Speak through their actions, demonstrating the habits, behaviours, expected of all.

 Show tolerance and emotional resilience to and for one another

 Help one another

 Listen to people’s ideas and perspectives

 Try and see situations from the other person’s perspective

 Treat every colleague with the dignity and respect as we would want to be treated

 Express our views at the right time and in the right place

 Remain calm in stressful situations and accept this as the norm.

These qualities are demonstrated in our words and actions and how we treat one another. Working in a

special school will present stresses and strains that go beyond the vast majority of settings, but can bring

wonderful rewards.

Staff need to be familiar with clear guidelines and strategies eg. learner behaviour, support and management

plans, to help maintain positive behaviour and discourage unwanted behaviour when it occurs. Staff should

be familiar with the Behaviour Support Policy, a copy of which is available in the office and on the school

website.

All class staff at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE School will receive training. This provides

guidance for assessment of harm, planning for, monitoring as well as physically supporting young people.

members of this team are: __________________________

Dress Code

the fact that learners may grab dangling and prominent items.

Clothing should be worn that maintains staff dignity & does not cause embarrassment to others.most

importantly the female staffs should only wear those dress that do not reveal any part of their body to the

Dismissals

Every UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE employee has the status of "employee-at-will," meaning

that no one has a contractual right, express or implied, to remain in UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLEGE’ employ. UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE may terminate an employee's

employment, or an employee may terminate his/her employment, without cause, and with or without notice,

at any time for any reason. No supervisor or other representative of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLEGE (except the Director) has the authority to enter into any agreement for employment for any

specified period of time, or to make any agreement contrary to the above.

E-Safety
Staff must take care when using social media and ensure that they do not bring themselves or the school into

disrepute. Staff must not share photos / images of learners on social media or discuss the school (See e-safety

policy).

Electrical Safety

All staff should monitor the condition of plugs, cables and electrical equipment and shall report to the

Technician any damaged electrical equipment or wiring. The technician is responsible for arranging repairs to

said equipment. Portable Appliance Testing is undertaken annually.

Any electrical items brought into school must be reported to the technician for testing prior to use.

The use of multi-adaptors is to be avoided, as is the use of extension leads unless they are fully unwound and

correctly protected. The school encourages staff and learners to conserve energy at all times. All appliances

should be switched off and unplugged before going home at night.

Emergency Procedures

In order for staff to summon help we recommend you save the number into your phone in case of emergency.

Their numbers are:____________

Equality

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE is an equal opportunities employer. Behaviour displayed by

staff believed to be against the spirit of equal opportunities whether for reasons of age, disability, ethnic

origin, gender, religion or sexual orientation will be unacceptable and should be brought to the attention of

the Head teacher.

Employee disciplinary procedure

Any violation of the policies enumerated in this Handbook or other employee misconduct may subject an

employee to disciplinary action, as outlined below. UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE reserves the

right to forego these disciplinary procedures and to discharge or reassign employees immediately dependent

on the nature and seriousness of the infraction.

Step 1: Informal discussion


Step 1 creates an opportunity for the immediate supervisor to schedule a meeting with an employee to bring

attention to the existing performance, conduct, or attendance issue. The supervisor/management should

discuss with the employee the nature of the problem or the violation of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLEGE policies and procedures. The supervisor/ management is expected to clearly describe expectations

and steps the employee must take to improve performance or resolve the problem. Bringing the matter to the

staff member's attention is often enough to prompt him or her to correct it willingly.

Step 2: Oral Warning

If a private, informal discussion with the employee does not result in corrective action, the immediate

supervisor should meet again with the employee and review the problem; permit the employee to present

his/her views on the problem; and advise the employee that the problem must be corrected and that failure to

do so will result in further disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

Step 3: Written Warning

If the employee fails to alter his/her behavior after an oral warning, the immediate supervisor should meet

with the employee in private and once again discuss the need for remediation and the possibility of

termination. The supervisor should issue a written warning (signed by the supervisor and the employee) to the

employee and place a copy in the employee’s personnel file. If the employee refuses to sign, a copy of the

written warning will still be placed in the employee’s file with a notation of the employee’s refusal to sign.

Step 4: Suspension and Final Written Warning

There may be performance, conduct, or safety incidents so problematic and harmful that the most effective

action may be the temporary removal of the employee from the workplace. When immediate action is

necessary to ensure the safety of the employee or others, the immediate supervisor may suspend the employee

pending the results of an investigation.

Step 5: Dismissal

In general, dismissal is recommended only when the employee does not respond to one or more of the above

steps. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the School reserves the right to discharge any employee immediately,
or to otherwise modify or omit any one or more steps in the disciplinary procedure, in its sole discretion.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine the

appropriate disciplinary action for employee misconduct or non-performance.

Immediate Dismissals/Misconduct

Any employee whose conduct, actions, or performance violates or conflicts with UNIQUE ISLAAMIC

SCIENCE COLLEGE’ policies may be terminated immediately and without warning.

The following are some examples of grounds for immediate dismissal of an employee:

 Breach of trust or dishonesty

 Willful violation of an established policy or rule

 Falsification of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE records

 Gross negligence

 Insubordination

 Violation of the Anti-Harassment and/or Equal Employment Opportunity Policies

This list is intended to be representative of the types of activities that may result in dismissal. It is not

intended to be comprehensive and does not change the employment-at-will relationship between any

employee and UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE.

In the event of a dismissal, all benefits end on the last day of employment. Departing employees are required

to return all UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE property (e.g., teachers’ manuals, tools, keys, etc.)

to the immediate supervisor in substantially the same condition in which it was received, normal wear and

must be taken to off-site sporting activities.

Minor injuries to learners should be cleaned using antiseptic wipe and left exposed to air.

Parents and/or guardians must be informed. Any member of staff accompanying a child to hospital should

take learner information sheets, available from each classroom and the admin office. If there is an emergency

with the child the school alarm system can be used to summon help from the school nurse.

If a child has an epileptic seizure they should, if possible, the area around the learner should be made safe and

they are in a comfortable position. Any clothing should be loosened around the neck. Staff will stay with the

child and reassure them when the seizure has stopped.

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE entrepreneur center

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE has extended the range of learning opportunities offered,

through establishing a community based facility that develops vocational, self-help and travel training skills.

The UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE entrepreneur center is a centre from which extended

work experience can be provided and supported by specialist staff. Such opportunities will be tailored to each

young person’s interests, aspirations and abilities.

The facility also seeks to offer the opportunity to extend learning beyond the academic year and academic

day, as well as beyond the age of 19 years. This community based resource provides an alternative to the

traditional classroom environment, which is not always suitable for young people who encounter particular

problems in traditional routes to learning.

The resource is described as “a living classroom” and seeks to extend learning opportunities for young people

who have severe or profound learning difficulties.


The UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE Studio features: shop selling “old fashioned” sweets.

Integrated tailoring for student, kitchen, where students can prepare meals, including computers workshop,

and other extra-curriculum activities (see student’s handbook)

Health & Safety

All staff in school has a personal responsibility for the health and safety of themselves, their colleagues,

learners and visitors. Our learners are especially vulnerable and staffs need to be constantly alert for possible

sources of danger. It is also the duty of every member of staff to report any unsafe conditions to the Head

teacher.

Each member of staff has a responsibility for drawing the Head teacher’s attention to their own personal

needs for training and for not undertaking duties unless they are confident that they have the necessary

competence. All staff have some health & safety responsibility and will be expected to have knowledge on

what to do if an accident or incident occurs, know the fire and first aid procedures and understand the basics

of infection control and manual handling.

Home/School Transport

Home/School transport is arranged by the Local Authority. If any child leaves the school during the school

day please write their name on the board by the main office.

All classroom assistants must be available to escort their class learners from the buses at 8.50am. All buses

are numbered and a list of learners on each bus supplied. An up to date list is available at school office desk.

Staff should check that children are safely positioned in the bus for home/school transport, that wheelchair

clamps are in place and that loose items of equipment are secure. If there are any problems the member of

staff should inform the Head teacher.

The school will provide each bus with information about each learner, stating any significant features about

that child which would be relevant for the time spent on the bus. No learner should be allowed to eat on the

bus. (see student’s hand book)

Homework / Home learning


Homework is set for those learners who are able to benefit from it. The wishes of parents / carers are an

important consideration.

In addition, learning objectives and strategies are shared at consultation meetings to assist parents and carers

support learning at home.

HOME WORK STANDARD

‘’teachers must guide learners sufficiently on how to carry out the home work to avoid the parents

doing it for them’’.

Illness (learners)

If a member of staff is concerned about the health of a child, they should consult the school management or in

their absence the Head or a member of the leadership team.

The school management will assess, and then make arrangements for the child and telephone parents if the

child needs to be collected. Only the management or a senior member of staff should call the parent / carer.

Illness (staff)

If a member of staff feels ill during the day, they should inform a colleague. If they are not able to continue

working they must ensure that the head teacher has been informed.
Links with Parents

We consider contact with parents to be a vital part of the work at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE

COLLEGE School.

Home/School notebooks/circular are a key means of communication but as time to write the notebook on a

daily basis might be limited, teachers may wish to discuss with parents items to be included. Teachers can

also communicate by school email address.

Items of a personal or confidential nature should not be included in these books and the Head teacher should

be consulted over these items. Wherever possible, learners should be expected to look after their own

notebooks or have them in their school bag, and not rely on the escort to carry them.

Maternity / paternity leave / shared parental leave

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE’s policies include details of entitlements to maternity or paternity

leave from work and further information may be acquired from the management.

Compassionate leave

UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE’s recognizes that employees do face difficult personal situations where

they may require time off to support their family or close relatives. Please speak to the management to

discuss compassionate leave.

Mobile phones

The school allows staff to bring in personal mobile phones and devices for their own use. The school is not

responsible for the loss, damage or theft of any personal mobile device. Personal mobile phones should be

switched off, or placed on silent, during work times – unless specific arrangements have been agreed with the

management. Staff should take care when calling parents / carers on their personal mobile phones and where

necessary seek advice from a member of the management.

Medication

Every class teacher and teaching assistant should be familiar with the medical needs of each learner in their

group in order to reduce the factors that could trigger their condition.
If the child is out of school on an educational visit, the class teacher or responsible adult according to

guidance will administer medicines provided.

Parents, Staff & Friends Association of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE (PSFA)

The PSFA is a registered charity (279369) and supports the work of the whole school providing resources and

opportunities that are regarded as being beyond the scope of the LA.

Personal Injury

The behaviour of some of our learners can sometimes be unpredictable and challenging and some learners do

not have full control of their bodily movements.

It is important that staff consider their own safety and that of others at all times.

Learner behaviour should be considered when completing and communicating risk assessments.

In the event of a sustaining injury at work it is essential that it is recorded on the day of the incident in the

incident book and appropriate form.

In the event of someone being bitten, and the skin broken, the person must seek treatment from appropriate

medical facilities (A&E/ GP) immediately.

The Head is responsible for notifying the LA and the Health and Safety Executive if required.

Play

Play offers opportunities for every child to learn, form relationships and have fun.

Most learners at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE do not know how to play – we have to teach

them by our example. Throughout each play session staffs need to focus on and engage with all learners.

Whether on the playground or field, each member of staff is part of a wider team.

Everyone shares the responsibility for the wellbeing and enjoyment of each learner - not just those who are in

the class with whom they are allocated. All staff should use their initiative and take the lead to organising

play activates involving their colleagues.

Playground Supervision
External play equipment should only be used when supervised. Staff should check equipment before use for

any apparent defects and for contamination by animals.

Any defects should be reported to the caretaker.

Staff must ensure the safety of learners and must be vigilant when supervising in the playground, positioning

themselves in the playground to allow for maximum supervision.

No child should be sent to or left in the main playground unsupervised. Staff should engage learners to

encourage use of equipment and interaction with other learners.

Adults supervising this area should be aware of the potential of…

• Learners running behind or in front of the swing

• Learners falling from equipment

• Learners pushing others when using the equipment

• Learners sliding down into another person at the bottom of the double slide.

Reporting / Recording Accidents to staff

An accident is regarded as a non-deliberate event. All deliberate events are regarded as incidents (see

reporting / recording of incidents). All accidents to staff must be recorded in the accident book. This

document is a kept in the Head’s office. Staff can access this at any time.

Resolving Issues between colleagues

When so many people are working with learners who have such complex needs, in inadequate and cramped

conditions, pressures and tensions are inevitable.

In order to support colleagues to resolve issues and disputes in a professional manner a structure has been put

in place.

In the event of a colleague feeling aggrieved, angry, concerned or upset they can choose to: Inform their class

teacher; inform a member of the Senior Management

The decision as to who to inform is up to the individual but it is important that the person who has a concern

or issue talks to someone.


Resignation

All employees planning to leave the employ of UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE are requested to

give written notice before departing. Principals should give notice of at least two (2) months; teachers should

give notice of at least one (1) month; all other employees should give notice of at least two (2) weeks.

In some instances, management may determine that the resignation should take effect immediately. In that

case, the employee will receive compensation for any work performed following the notice of termination

that has been approved by the management.

Departing employees are required to return all UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE property (e.g.,

teachers’ manuals, tools, keys, etc.) to the immediate supervisor in substantially the same condition in which

it was received, normal wear and tear expected.

Tuition Discounts for staffs

employee renders to the School until the discount reaches the cap of fifty (50) percent. Once the fifty (50)

percent cap is reached, the discount continues at that rate for as long as the employee remains employed by

the School. UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE reserves the right to vary from this policy on a case-

by-case basis in its sole discretion.

It is important to note that there may be classes where it would be more difficult to accommodate a visiting

child than others and this will inform the decision of the member of staff. Only under exceptional

circumstances can a member of staff bring more than one child at a time into school.

Only under exceptional circumstances would a child under the age of 5 be permitted to be in school for the

whole day.

know how the business works.

One of the most interesting parts of our school farm will be the rabbit hutch, which encourage students and

allow them have knowledge on rabbit rearing.

In each academic session, our student in the Secondary class will plant, nurtured and harvested maize crop.

They can also plant vegetable crop, which will be well nurtured to the stage of harvesting.

Our student will contribute in saving the Earth by stopping Global Warming through planting of crops, trees

and nurtured by these students.

In other areas like fish farming, snail rearing, rabbit rearing, poultry and livestock farming our institution plan

to secure a place for that, the school will allows all students in the Young Farmers club to have access to

these animals which were provided by the school, so as to observe the nature and development of these

animals. Students took active part in the feeding and ensuring hygienic environment for these animals.

All these above mentioned activities of the Young Farmers club are basically to encourage and broaden the

knowledge of our students that have interest in any branch of agriculture. The school has the aim of
producing young entrepreneur, energetic, educated and brilliant farmers that will feed the nation and

contribute to the development of the economy of our great country, NIGERIA through Agriculture.

Enterprise Hub

Young people need to be prepared for a world which is changing rapidly. They need to have the skills and

attitudes in order to cope with an unpredictable future and be able to make the most of their abilities to

contribute to the world of work and the wider community. From the earliest age, children have a natural

ability to be enterprising and it is important for that ability to be nurtured throughout education.

This is the opportunity that is offered to all members of the school community to develop enterprise skills

applicable in all spheres of life.

Enterprise Education is not a standalone subject: it underpins, and is supported by the 2013 NERDC

curriculum.

Four vocational fields will be available for all the students:

Garment making

Catering

Fisheries

Basic electricity

The use of ICT/technology is embedded to enhance creativity and innovation.

Other strategies that will drive the hub include mentoring, mock interviews and extended work placements.

Home Makers

We also have well trained experienced and dedicated personnel who are ready and willing to train students in

any of their choice subject.

Students have been trained in the following areas:

Soap making, Disinfectants, Sanitizers and scouring powder.

Garment making which involves Permanent and Temporary stitches.

Foods and Nutrition: Pizza making, bread rolls, ice-cream, cake baking and decoration.

With these we can guaranty you that so much more await your wards.

Homework
Homework tasks may cover a broad variety of activities including reading, research, spelling, tables/number

practice, maths, writing, etc. Homework is not given without prior teaching or explanation in class. We value

homework as an opportunity for parents to work in partnership with the school and take an active role in their

child’s learning. (see teacher’s handbook)

Open days

These are opportunities for parents to come into the school during a normal school day to observe their child

and participate in the learning activities.

Parents/Teachers Forum

At UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE, we hold Parents/teachers meetings throughout the year to

discuss various topics.

The aim of this is to seek the views of parents on a variety of issues and improve the relationship between the

school and our families. The agenda items are set in conjunction with the school and parents, and this is an

open forum to suggest ideas of improvements and provide feedback on changes and different aspects of

school life.

The school welcomes any feedback on what is working well at UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE,

as well as any suggestions you may have for improvement. If you have an item you would like to raise prior

the next meeting, please do not wait until then. Kindly come and see us - we find that face-to-face

conversations are always the easiest, and therefore encourage parents not to wait for the meetings to discuss

their issue. However, we understand that some parents will be unable to attend some meetings, which is why

we invite email comments as well.

Meetings throughout the year are held at different times and on different days in order to enable a wider range

of parents to attend. At UNIQUE ISLAAMIC SCIENCE COLLEGE, we are constantly striving to be the best

that we can be, so we would love to hear your thoughts!

Reporting

Parents will get regular information about their children’s strengths, progress and achievements and be

informed about any gaps in their children’s progress and ways that they can help. Reports will focus on how

well the child is progressing in terms of levels and becoming secure in their learning. Reports will include

brief qualitative comments about planned learning across the curriculum areas and in different contexts.
Parents are welcome at any time to discuss their child’s progress; it is best to make an appointment in

advance, although it is often possible to chat informally to a teacher at the beginning or end of the school day.

Security

Access to the school is only possible through the main entrance. All visitors are requested to report to the

office upon arrival to sign in using the School Security system located at the foyer.

Every parent and authorized pick-up person MUST have registered with our School Security system.

It is imperative that you register anyone you would like to have the authority to pick up your child. Should a

case arise where registration has not been completed, a manual voucher would be issued.

School Bus Run

The School Bus currently runs in the local area near the school, and around its axis. Should you require this

service, kindly make a request at the front office. Otherwise we ask parents to bring their child to arrive

school no later than 7.45am and pick them up at the close of school.

School Fees

It is imperative that the school collects fees payments in a timely manner in order to pay its bills, including

payroll, to maintain its reputation of fiscal responsibility. Failure on the part of parents to stay current with

tuition/fees or other payments could slow down the full function of the school.

Parents are advised to pay their wards' school fees a week or two before resumption to the School Bank

Account stated below and a copy of the teller submitted to the school management for issuance of receipt.

Late payment will no longer be condoned. Since we are pursuing the policy of quality education at very

affordable cost, our school fees remains unchanged. Our Prevailing School fees are stated below.

SCHOOL FEES PAYMENT AND ASSOCIATED INCENTIVES.

A. Single Annual Payment of Fees:

This is made upfront at the beginning of the session. The merits of this choice include that:

i. Any increase in Tuition during the session will not affect the parent that selects this option.

ii. Any parent taking this choice shall be entitled to a 10% discount on the Annual Tuition provided the bill is

paid before or within the first week of resumption for the new session.

B. Termly Payment of Fees:

Payment is made at the start of each term. Termly fees and reminders are sent out with Learners’

Performance Reports. This is the practice presently in use by the school and some other schools and the

known associated advantages of this choice include all those available under Choice A and that:

i. It is very convenient for most parents to follow the option.

ii. Any parent taking this choice shall not be entitled to any discount on the Termly Tuition except those

entitled to under Strategic Enrolment Incentive.

Our strong plea with parents/guardians exploring this option is that at least 70% of the fees payable should be

cleared before resumption while the balance of 30% settled on or before the third week of each term to avoid

any embarrassment.

*Before incentives could be claimed, the new/old parent(s) must have paid the full fees. The school shall

only allow the incentives in arrears.
