@OP, what you complain about can be turned into a million dollar business. Don't wait for someone else to solve the problems you can solve by your own efforts.

Your contract with the school ends at the completion of the term. Set up a vocational training camp exclusively for kids (99% practicals) and watch your fortune change forever. Do not wait for schools to take up that challenge; truth is they can't!

Deviate from the norm, offer exclusive yet luxury courses like fashion and design (for kids), selected musical instruments, voice training, graphics design, football, table tennis, etc. for different age groups.

Whoever is interested should send me a PM. I will deliver a comprehensive market survey and a business plan on this in 2-3 weeks (the offer comes with a cost though).

Nice one,but then you have to evaluate your child's performance in school,is he/she above average or below average,you can't just conclude that the summer lesson is a scam,cause if your child performance is far below your expectations then you have no reasons keeping such child away form summer lesson.

in some way true.
and most schools dont even teach anything during the summer coaching.

while most teachers are paid to advertise the school to the new student in class.

in this country most schools are just to collect fees.
many don't have anything to offer anymore.

Fellow nairalanders, please read and make suggestions


A child will go to school by 7am and close by 5pm for five days out of the seven days in a week.

During weekends that child comes home with many assignments in all the subjects he or she is offering in school. So there won't be time to rest and play through out the weekend.

The child does that for almost four months hoping to enjoy the holidays only for schools to come up with a scam in the name of holidays lesson.

What exactly do you want to teach that child?

Dear Nigerian parents, summer holiday is a period you allow a child to experience other things in life apart from formal education.

Allow them to travel for the vacation and if you don't have money for vacation, take them to a place where they will learn new skills.

Let them go and learn how to draw, computer coding, how to play football, martial art, learn business, catering, tie and die, learn foreign languages etc

Allow this children to explore life.

Everytime Book book book that is why most of our youths are unemployed because they can't do any other thing apart from white collar job.


May God help and bless our children.

Thank you very much.

Boss, you're on point!
If I have my way kids will close by 12:00pm.

They need few hours to play and be imaginative. You need not cage them. When they play in moderation, learning becomes much more easy for them.

We should let our kids enjoy the joys of holiday like we did.

No wonder we have depressed kids everywhere who know nothing except books. No basic skills whatsoever.
Let's stop stealing their joy and childhood.

My dear yoruba muslim brother, we all know that after the abookis, we yoruba muslims are the most illiterate in nigeria. That's why we have more IDP campers and ibeberudeen beggars from ogbomosho to Oshogbo and all over yorubaland. We must say the truth and shame esu. Amin kufayakun!

"Holiday Stress"=Play. If you hook your child on books only, you're doing them a disservice, and they may resent you for that in future.

my own major problem with nigerian schools especially nursery/primary is that,instead of developing the child ability to write,read, communicate n comprehend independently from nursery-primary3,they will be busy teaching complicated stuffs n giving uncountable assignments to pupils that have not even mastered the proper pronounciation of four- five letter words,i wonder by what magic they expect the pupil to do those assignments,most oftenly they just push the children to engage in expo,any holiday lesson for nursery/primary pupils of primary 3 n below which is not for writting,reading or communication development is not for my child period.

Steal what joy? The kids, during holidays, only have to be in school from 9am to 12 noon. Is that what you call a killjoy? I hear in most schools children don't even have to attend classes on Friday, so again I wonder what the big deal is about this hue and cry over the lessons, when they are supposed to engage kids whose parents are ever on the move.
