Education is to Impart and not to Impresss-Tony Adokiye Ekine

Dear Parents,
EDUCATION is to IMPART and not to IMPRESS. Give your children the best of Education YOU CAN AFFORD. Do well to strike a balance with the standard of the school and your budget.

Please Note:
NOT ALL GOOD SCHOOLS ARE EXPENSIVE AND NOT ALL EXPENSIVE SCHOOLS ARE GOOD.

Don't be carried away by class, friends, size, school fees, etc. What yardstick have you used to determine the choice you have made?

Some schools are only operating in past glory, others are enjoying a good corporate image (Public Relations and Branding). Some are leveraging on the status of the proprietors (e. g. Wife of former president, etc).
Many schools are simply business centers.

Do your research, find out what exactly they are offering. Ensure that you will be assured of true VALUE. That's what truly matters. Be sure the school in question can spur your child or ward to expressing innate gifting. Please, let's put our priorities right. Their future truly matter; Not all that glitter is gold and let's stop judging a book by the cover.

Make an informed and not a sentimental decision...I appeal to us - parents, to be more involved in the educational process of our children. Attend PTA meetings, go for open Days, closing events, etc. Your presence usually will make a world of difference.
Mere financially provision is not enough.

Think on these things (selah) ...

Sincerely,
Tony Adokiye Ekine
Your Education Advocate & Brand Strategist.
