The director of Caleb Group of Schools, Dr. Ola Adebogun, has attributed the school’s 100 percent record of excellence and the various laurels received over the years to its conformity to quality standards.
Adebogun made the remarks during a chat with newsmen at Ikeja, Lagos State, early in the week.
He noted that the performance of Caleb Group of Schools in both national and international competitions have further confirmed the institution’s core objectives of ensuring the production of boys and girls who are ready to make significant contributions to national growth.
“Our aim is to turn out morally and academically sound products; and to this end, we seek to give the students the best and highest possible academic, Christian and moral education,” he said.
Adebogun expressed his joy in the products of the school whose track records in their different endeavours remained unbeatable, adding that they had successfully stood against the absurdities of life and had become the pride of the college.
“We are proud of our school products who are today men and women with outstanding achievements, and we will continue to identify with their success stories,” he noted.
