Gender-Inclusive Digital Learning & CBT Enablement
Project STAR is designed as a gender-inclusive transformation initiative supporting equitable access to digital learning, assessment readiness, and academic support. Lagelu Grammar School serves as the live proof-of-value environment where delivery models, infrastructure patterns, and learner outcomes are validated for broader replication.
Programme Description & Key Components
ur flagship initiative focuses on improving basic literacy skills for JSS1 students. When we began in Q1 2025, baseline literacy stood at just 10% by the close of that quarter; we had already reached 35%, with targets of 55% by June and 80% by September 2025 firmly in sight.
One year on, Q1 2026 tells a deeper story. The numbers have moved, but so has the culture of learning itself. A reformed assessment strategy that combines weekly evaluations, personalised interventions, group collaboration, and structured individual tasks has replaced one-size-fits-all teaching. Performance data is now collected with precision, enabling educators to design strategic interventions rather than react to failure. Individual progress has accelerated through consistent, targeted support, and a deliberate programme of academic integrity development is transforming student attitudes, thereby eliminating habits such as academic dishonesty and disengagement, and embedding the discipline that sustains long-term achievement.
Updated Key Components:
Phonics instruction, vocabulary building, reading comprehension, Yoruba language integration, peer learning groups, weekly performance assessments, personalised interventions, data-driven strategic support, and academic integrity development
