The Primary Section consists of two different parts, the Lower and the Upper parts.
LOWER PRIMARY: The lower primary comprises Primary One and Two. Teaching at this level is
aided
with teaching resources to capture pupil's attention and stimulate their interest. Most of our
pupils are capable of reading without any help from their class teachers. This is because at
Primary One, the pupils are already exposed to Primary Two scheme of work and Primary Two pupils
are exposed to Primary Three scheme. It continues in this order until they get to Primary Five
when they are enrolled for Primary Six Leaving Certificate Examination. Teaching at this level
is based on specialization. The subjects offered are fashioned according to the Basic Education
Cirriculum. These subjects are: Mathematics, English Language, Religion and National Values,
Basic Science and Creative Arts.
UPPER PRIMARY: The upper primary conprises Primary Three, Four and Five and they also
offer
subjects in line with the Basic Education Curriculum. At this level, the pupils are taught
simpificatiion of fractioins, HCM, LCM, multiplication, division of numbers and decimal (Using
BODMAS) plane shapes, algebra etc. They are also taught pronunciation, letter/essay writing,
basic comprehension and grammar skills. Pupils also learn the theoretical and practical aspects
of the computer by using the computer laboratory.

separate the weak ones from the strong ones. We have also participated in several competitions
like debate competition organized by our Lady of Mercy in conjunciton with the Ministry of
Education, debate organized by NTA Benin network centre and a host of others. In the aspect of
discipline, the primary section has achieved much, as our pupils come early to school, wear neat
uniforms and they have been trained to be respectful and obedient.
