Some construction going on at Oxbridge. As you know we’re always trying to improve our offering to students and staff. We carried out a survey last year to see what additional facilities were wanted and we came up with??!!……..
I’ll be posting pictures in the coming weeks. See if you can guess
APEN (Association of Private Schools in Nigeria) was hosted by the college in a seminar entitled “Transforming Education in Nigeria”. A collaboration between Incubator Africa and Profound Learning Institute, Canada.
The main speaker, Tom Bradley, spoke on the imperativeness of a brand new educational system in Nigeria which he aptly called, System Transformation as against the usual practice of improving a faulty system. According to him, this is the current global challenge. Going down memory lane and citing facts from recent research works, he based his view on the following premises:
Thereafter ,Tom challenged the participants on the imperativeness of creativity, taking learning to the ambiance of the learners, creating the right learning environment, where teachers themselves are not only impacted on the need for change, but to also be learners themselves.
In conclusion, the speaker introduced the sets of models which his organization, Profound Learning Institute, Canada, has developed which he would like the participating schools to imbibe and accommodate, within the reality of their own peculiar situations. This workshop will hold sometime in September, 2013.

It was a thing of joy on the 11th May, 2013 when former Miss. Ladun Ogunleye, the Human Resources Manager in the college, was joined in holy matrimony to Mr. Ayodeji Taiwo Grillo. The event which had the Managing Director of the college and other members of staff in attendance, started in Surulere Baptist Church followed by the reception at The Eko Club. We wish the couple a blissful marital life
May 3rd 2013 marked the end of another academic year, the day the college held the annual valedictory service in Archbishop Vining Memorial Church GRA Ikeja, Lagos. This particular event was significant, because it created the opportunity for all and sundry to appreciate God for his faithfulness in the last 20 years. There were sermons, prayers by students, a parent and the officiating priest.
One of the highlights of the event was when the Managing Director of the college, Dr. (Mrs.) C. O Ogunsanya chronicled her initial challenges moving the college to its current permanent site and how through faith and persistence, she was able to overcome all.
Subsequently, parents attended another college event, TEA WITH THE PRINCIPAL, where they were updated on their children’s academic progress. We wish all our outgoing students a successful life after Oxbridge.
