This international standard Secondary school which continues to produce
outstanding students may indeed be one of the best-kept secrets in the Nigerian
education sector today.
Did you know that last year, 13-year old Chimelum
Tasi-Amadi, a year 9 student of City of Knowledge Academy (CKA Int’l),
noiselessly set an academic record when he effortlessly achieved the perfect
score in the Cambridge Checkpoint Examination? Today, the outstanding feat by
Tasi-Amadi has earned him placement at Phillips Academy Exeter USA (a world
renowned Prep School that prepares students almost exclusively for the IVY
League Universities in the USA). Yet, before the Cambridge Checkpoint
Examination feat, both Tasi-Amadi and CKA had dazzled keen watchers of
educational terrain with award-winning performances at both the American
Mathematical Competition and the Cowbell Mathematics Competition.

Between 2015 and 2016, CKA has presented eleven (11)
students of age range 10 to 14 years for the Microsoft System Administration
Certification examinations and they all passed with flying colours. Today,
these 11 students have all been certified by Microsoft as Systems
Administrators with proficiency in MS-Words 2010.

These success stories and several others- which have not yet
been fully told – point to CKA as an outstanding addition to the nation’s academic
landscape, providing invaluable opportunities in a safe and secure environment
for the holistic development of the child. The school uses a unique approach to
teaching and learning on the three Cs of CULTURE (Local and cultural training
and exposure; social awareness, respect and empathy); CHARACTER (Integrity,
focus, commitment, principles and conscience); CONFIDENCE (Knowledge,
diligence, academic excellence and mind wealth).

Situated on well-appointed grounds within the leafy and
serene suburbs of Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria, CKA is easily accessible via
the Ore-Benin Express way. The school’s location offers a serene and conducive
learning environment away from the stressful atmosphere of city life. In recent
times, CKA has become known as ‘the quiet achiever.’

This is not surprising as the founder Mrs. Mosun
Belo-Olusoga herself is indeed the quintessential quiet achiever, known for
saying often “let’s just do an excellent job and our job will speak for
us”. She is a devoted mother, distinguished
professional, consummate business leader and administrator. Her successful
career history of over 30years has been devoted to mentoring and building
people and institutions in diverse sectors.
