Listen to yourself dude
One guardian per student, does that make sense to you? How many teachers are in the school? or are you implying people are hired just to act as guardians for kids?
Gawd...
EducationRe: Boarding School Vs Day School: Which Is Better? by BlackSan: 1:46pm On Jul 21, 2021
SUPERPACK:
Yes. Each student is assigned a teacher as a guardian that oversees their welfare, not on one to one basis but one teacher to 10 or 15 students. Should you have any issue with fellow students, seniors or teacher you are to report to them first and they take up the case. They are just like your parents in school.
Ah jeez I can't believe you just said this lol
From being assigned one guardian per student to a group of students per teacher.
Sigh... You are Wrong!!!
I don't know how you came up with this assumption, not all students get assigned to teacher.

SUPERPACK:
Stop using a single school to judge everyone. Not all schools eat little, every student is normally assigned to a teacher as a guardian so having someone to caution you is not an issue. The more the money you pay for your child in boarding school the more the quality of life, you can't compare a school of 40k a term to that of 150k/300k a term. Same way you can't compare a day school of 2k per term to a day school of 30k per term. Class is all that matters.
Excuse me, before I proceed further, I want to get one thing clear, did you just say, each student has his/her own guardian?

Boarding School Better Than Day School?

there are a lots of reasons to send you kids to boarding schools, but in my opinion, boarding school is better than day school, students who are in boarding school are mentally and emotionally strong, most students find it hard to live in boarding school, a lot of them do cry when ever their parents come visiting. Boarding schools tend to teach moral and value which is lacking in today life.

Discipline

Discipline is one of the major reasons to send you kid to boarding school. Boarding school students are well-disciplined than the day school students. Discipline makes boarding school better than day school. There are different factors which contributes to the well discipline of secondary school hostel students. There are different set of rules which guide the boarding school students, for example, a boarding school student knows that he has to wake up on time, brush, do his morning duty(maybe sweeping the hostel, washing of toilet etc) take his bath on time, go to dinning in order not miss his breakfast.

Punctual

Punctual is one of the reasons to send your kid to boarding school. When it comes to time, boarding school students are good time managers than the day school students. Every day-to-day activities being carry out in boarding school have its specific time, we made reference to dinning time which is the most crucial among all. When you miss your meal, you have to go hungry and patiently wait for the next meal. Especially in boarding schools that doesn't allow provision, like the missionary school.

Hard Working

Yes hard work is one of the main reasons to send you kid to boarding school. Boarding schools breed students to be hard-working, the students who neglect their morning duties are being penalized. Those who hide during manual labor are not left out, they will be punished. Most students who come from the rich family find it hard to wash their clothes by their selves and carry out other mini duties. But in boarding schools, the case is different, nobody will wash your clothes for you, you will have to do it by your self.

Socialization

Social activity of the kid is also a reasons why boarding school is better than day school. Boarding school plays a key role when it comes to socialization . Most kids find it hard to socialize and mingle with other kids, boarding school tend to bring together kids with different background and characters. A dull kid will end up being outspoken and bright. Some kids find it difficult to speak in public, they tend to be afraid, but with the aid of boarding school, the kid will know how to relate with people he doesn't know.

Academic Performance

The kid academic performance is another reason to send your kid to boarding school. I wouldn't say that boarding school kids are more intelligent than the day school. Rather, I will say that boarding school students perform academically better than the day school. There is time for everything, the boarding school student tend to utilize his reading time than that of the day school. A day students may not have time to read after school due to many factors or might be busy doing nothing, but a boarding student will have time to read after school, because they are forced to go fot night prep(reading) every day for about 2 or more.

Free time

Most time, it is difficult for some parents to look after their kids at home,it could be as a result of their job. especially, bankers that leave home as early as 7am to be back by 8pm or 10pm when there is tragic for people staying in major cities like Lagos. A boarding school is perfect for such parents, it will be a home away from home.
I do agree on the fact that business people who have no time for their kids should sent them to boarding school but aside that, the rest you mentioned are mere excuses! Unless you wanna tell me a hostel mistress can discipline you more than your parents

Parents always pay attention to their kids (except the irresponsible ones) and they give the highest discipline

Being in a boarding school doesn't guarantee you academic success, I don't know of what fact you base this assumption.
You can't be playing when you have exams at home

If you know anything about socialization and boarding schools, then you know, there's limitation to your socialization unlike when you are at home, you keep learning new experience and even news about other people helps to enlighten the child.

In conclusion, don't sit and type assumptions with facts, it is both embarrassing and dumb.

grandlexuz:
I definitely agree with you on parents needing to be around during those early years but to say boarding school breeds cultists and gays is the most absurd thing I ever heard. I dont know about Nigeria but in Cameroon most boarding schools are run by Christian Missions. Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist, Full Gospel and the Apostolic church. At the bolded I dont think you have been to a boarding school. The are well laid down disciplinary structures from class cordinators to dormitory captains to prefects and then house masters. During siesta even in the absence of a house master no student can be seen loitering or not in bed..There is self consciousness.

Some of these schools have been in existence as far back as 1948. I went to a Presbyterian mixed mission boarding school in the late eighties and early nineties. I have a daughter in a Catholic all girls Mission school... Most parents send their kids to these schools for quality results and dependency. The best results in Cameroon do come from Mission boarding school with well behaved kids. Isolated incidents of lesbiansm is not enough to tag them as a reservoir for lesbians . As for cultism it is not a Cameroonian problem..

I only know of two government boarding schools in Cameroon with the majority of students being day students. There are also private boarding schools that receive recalcitrant children in a bid to mould them up..
Now this is where you have it all wrong, Just because it is a missionary boarding school or it has been around for a long time doesn't mean, they won't be cultist or homosexual students among them.

If you are going to give a good fact, do so with your experience and not a glorified propaganda.

Fedoglo:
Boarding schools are better if u have kids who are very careless and playful,just send them there to learn maturity and discipline. So its boarding school for me
Maturity in what sense? And what do you think is maturity?
Being forced to wake up early for class, ringing the bells to go pass your plate for food, only to get very little food that makes some children get too comfortable with always begging their friends and some of them might even have the thoughts of stealing.
Or is maturity about being in an environment where there's no one to correct about your wrongs or how to manage your time in everything you do?

Sigh you really don't know what maturity is all about. Just because you make decisions for yourself, doesn't mean you are matured, there are times a kid would make wrong decisions but they would be no one to caution him

So tell me, what is maturity?

Lmao
I don't know how you come up with all these, making lame excuses for people's behavior and decisions.

Are you aware people's environment aside family and peers, also influence them?

I want to believe since you went to a boarding school, you have this relative experience where we're binded by the school rules of waking up early to prepare for class, or morning devotion if it be a missionary school and going to prep at night.
Mind you, the rules of the school only shape the student's behavior to an extent, no one is forcing you to read, or go to class or telling you about your wrongs.

That's the difference between a day and boarding school.

Honestly boarding schools and day schools have their advantages and disadvantages. Its really up to the family and the child to see which is a better fit for them…..

Missionary boarding school, Why? It builds the mind and teach students how to survive on their own without their parents and also the moral upbringing attached to such schools. If I am to go back in age I will still choose a boarding school again. Though it was hard but was also fun.
Social life/effect; It made me so independent that I find it hard to associate with people, I can literally live in a whole town only me without seeing a human and wont even feel the need to see any.
Your so called "morals" is only a phase which eventually wears off on students with time. Waking up by 5am for morning devotion, going to school early, going for evening evening by 5pm and prep after dinners, sounds nice doesn't it? Except very few students become the ideal type you are talking about.

In boarding school, students live in the school premises and go to class from their hostels while day school students go to school from their parent houses.
Which one do you prefer and why?
I prefer day school.
I was once a boarder, it wasn't really a good experience and to make it worse, it was a missionary boarding school. Everyone has their own opinion but I don't recommend boarding school.

Travel expenses... Depends on the country
Which is why they have forum for any country you intend to travel to.

Yes you can study other courses! For Instance, you don't need to study Law before taking the LSAT exam (this is just an example)

And about your finance, you will spend less if you intend to process it by yourself but if you are going to use agents, just keep enough money. All in all, it is better you have enough money with you.

Justwise and others can help you with more info.

I used garri as an example because even a church rat can afford it. I am not gullible. Imagine someone saying 50% of Nigerians earn 137,000 per annum. Even in the worst cities that won't cover your rent for a two bedroom house for a year. Let's be realistic. Feeding alone for an individual cost over 300k in a year.
I want to see where you are going with your point on feeding. I already stated earlier spending is different from saving.
TravelRe: It Is Impossible To Save $25 (₦10,000) Daily Abroad by BlackSan: 6:03am On Jul 21, 2021
Besides spending and saving are two different things. Just because you spend 30k a day doesn't necessarily mean you are doing fine financially. The price of things are so expensive that when you go to the market with 6k, you end up calculating thrice to be sure how your money was spent.
I feel like I'm talking to a naive child who just experience the world in One day, just to generalize the situation of the people.

Nobody live on 400 naira a day in Nigeria. That's one big fat lie. How much is a cup of garri? If i eat garri and groundnut thrice a day I will spend over 600 naira. I doubt you live in Nigeria yourself. 60% of Nigerians spend over a million naira annually. That's just 3k daily. Can 3k daily pay the bills of a wife, husband and three kids. There are millions of Nigerian families with two cars, rent of 300k per annum or even own houses. Let's be realistic for once. What you are saying doesn't add up. The average Nigerian family spend at least 2million annually
Okay so I came to a conclusion from this dumb post
You are either too dumb or you are trolling
Honestly... This is the second time you made mention of garri! You think taking Garri thrice a day as a means of survival is healthy? Without thinking of consequences like Ulcer attack, Cataract and other eye problems

Sigh
The internet has become a gullible Nigerians to embarrass us.
