Our standard

The bar keeps dropping. Ours does not.

Academic standards in this country have been sliding for years, and most parents can see it. Government cannot fix everything at once. And too many private schools have answered with packaging instead of teaching — pampering children, avoiding hard work, and promoting everyone to the next class because it keeps parents happy.

We went the other way. We raise the bar and we ask our pupils to reach it. Work is marked honestly and weak work goes back. No child moves up a class because the calendar says so. Discipline is part of the teaching here — firm where it needs to be, never harsh, and always explained. Strict, but humane.

We do not pamper children, and we do not tell parents what they want to hear. You do not have to take our word for it. Ask our parents. Then look at where our pupils go next — secondary school, other primary schools, and for some of them, schools abroad. They are not the ones playing catch-up. They are usually the ones setting the pace. Our standard has spoken for us for years.

Our programs

One continuous journey, from babies to primary leavers

Each stage builds deliberately on the last, so children move up with confidence instead of starting over.

  • Creche / Play Group

    Creche / Play Group

    Cared for, then taught

    Two stages under one roof. Creche is care for our babies. Play Group is where teaching begins — real lessons, work that is marked, and first tests at the child's own level.

    • Creche — close, consistent care
    • Creche — daily written updates to parents
    • Play Group — real lessons, not only play

  • Nursery

    Nursery

    Where reading and confidence begin

    Reading, reasoning and number built deliberately — from two-letter words to fluent sentences, and from counting to real arithmetic.

    • Reading from two-letter words to fluent sentences
    • Sight words, phonics and reading aloud every day
    • Verbal, quantitative and critical reasoning
    Learn more
  • Primary

    Primary

    Rigorous, and still humane

    Held to a 90% benchmark rather than a pass mark. Pupils leave prepared for the Primary School Leaving Certificate and for secondary school — and they stay ahead once they are there.

    • A 90% benchmark, not the pass mark
    • Prepared for the Primary School Leaving Certificate
    • Honest marking and termly reporting

Why families choose SEADDO

Standards you can see, care you can feel

Six things we will not compromise on, and which you are welcome to come and verify in person.

  • 01

    A blended curriculum

    Local and international standards taught as one programme, with coding on the timetable — so a child who transfers, here or abroad, is not starting over.

  • 02

    Small class sizes

    Every child is known by name, and every teacher has the room to individualise support rather than teach to the middle.

  • 03

    Safety first, always

    Secure campus, verified staff, and clear pick-up and drop-off protocols enforced at every level.

  • 04

    Transparent communication

    Regular updates on what your child enjoyed and what they found hard — not a report card at the end of term.

  • 05

    Whole-child development

    Character, creativity and physical development are tracked and reported alongside literacy and numeracy.

  • 06

    Proven outcomes

    A consistent record of pupils moving into strong secondary schools, placed at or above the level expected.

What parents say

Families who trust us with their children

The satisfaction figure above is not an abstraction — it is these families, in their own words.

Within one term my daughter went from struggling with reading to finishing chapter books on her own. Her teacher had noticed exactly where she was stuck and worked with her patiently, without ever making her feel slow.

What convinced me was the follow-up. I get real updates about my son — what he enjoyed, what he found hard — not just a report card at the end of term.
Mr. Okonkwo
Mr. OkonkwoParent, Nursery 2
Both my children are here. The character training is taken as seriously as the academics, and it shows in how they speak to people at home.
Mrs. Balogun
Mrs. BalogunParent, Creche & Primary 1
The hybrid curriculum gave my son a real advantage. He sat his entrance exams comfortably and was placed ahead of where we expected him to be.
Dr. Ilesanmi

I was nervous about leaving a two-year-old anywhere. The settling-in sessions changed that completely — by the third day she was walking in on her own.

Our Leadership

The people behind the school

A school is only as good as the people who run it. Ours are educators first — on campus daily, known to parents by name.

Ibrahim Addo Emmanuel, Proprietor

Proprietor

Ibrahim Addo Emmanuel

SEADDO Academy was founded on a simple conviction: that a child’s earliest years decide the shape of everything that follows. We built a school we would be glad to send our own children to.

Proprietress

Mrs. Addo Oluwaseun Adewunmi

I am a certified educator with a B.Sc. in Education, and I do not run this school from just sitting in an office. I teach, I guide, and I am in the classrooms — raising children who are sound and God-fearing, and who grow up to build things rather than wait for them.

Come and see the school for yourself

Watch a lesson. Ask the teachers hard questions. We would rather earn your trust in person than claim it in a brochure.
