EAUED Nursery and Primary School

The EAUED Nursery and Primary School (formerly EACOED Staff School) is the foundational educational unit under the management of the Emmanuel Alayande University of Education, Oyo. Similar to the Model College, it serves as a high-standard private primary school and a vital training ground for the University’s School of Early Childhood Care and Primary Education.

1. Leadership

The school is overseen by a Headteacher, who works under the supervision of a University Management Board. The current leadership focuses on transitioning the school’s curriculum to align with modern university-standard basic education, ensuring that the pupils are prepared for top-tier secondary schools like the EAUED Model College.

2. Core Objectives

• Staff Welfare: Originally established to provide high-quality, convenient education for the children of university staff members (lecturers and non-teaching staff).

• Community Service: The school is open to the general public, providing the Oyo community with access to a university-supervised basic education system.

• Practical Training: It serves as the primary site for Teaching Practice (TP) and research for university students specializing in Primary Education and Early Childhood Care.

3. Academic Structure

The school is divided into three main sections:

• Crèche/Playgroup: Catering to infants and toddlers in a safe, stimulating environment.

• Nursery Section: Focusing on the "Early Years Foundation Stage," including basic literacy, numeracy, and social skills.

• Primary Section (Basic 1-6): Following the Nigerian National Basic Education Curriculum, with an emphasis on computer literacy, quantitative reasoning, and verbal aptitude.

4. Key Facilities

• Learning Environment: Bright, well-ventilated classrooms designed for young learners.

• ICT Lab: Introduction to basic computer skills at an early age.

• Play Area: Equipped with recreational facilities to support physical development and psychomotor skills.

• Health Oversight: The school has access to the University Health Services for medical emergencies and routine check-ups.

5. Admission and Enrollment

Enrollment typically begins with the purchase of an application form at the school premises (located within the University environment, often near the staff quarters or the main entrance area).
