As a fledgling primary institution, the Academy of Excellence is already proving to be a force to be reckoned with, having produced seven pupils worthy of attending Queen?s College at this year?s National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA). In fact, the pupil who placed ninth in the country at the examination was Atiqua Roshandin of the new primary school.Another 10 of the school?s pupils were awarded senior secondary schools and a total of 25 were able to secure places at junior secondary schools in Region Three, with significantly high marks.Mrs Latchmin GopalHeaded by award-winning teacher,[url=http://www.cheapnfljerseysmr.us@#$%&/]NFL Jerseys Outlet From China[/url], Mrs Latchmin Gopal,[url=http://www.baseballgreet@#$%&/Arizona-Diamondbacks-Gregor-Blanco-Jersey/]Arizona Diamondbacks Gregor Blanco Jersey[/url], the Academy of Excellence officially opened its doors to the delivery of education on September 5 last year. The private institution, situated at 263 Block X Cornelia Ida, West Coast Demerara, became Gopal (a former Grade Six teacher of the Leonora Primary School)?s project,[url=http://www.footlockershop.us@#$%&/Nike-roshe-one-br/]http://www.footlockershop.us@#$%&/Nike-roshe-one-br/[/url], after serving the public education system for 37 years.While at Leonora Primary, her expert teaching capability was instrumental in helping a number of her pupils ascend to top secondary schools, an undertaking she intends to see remain constant at her new school.?I still feel that I have the ability to make each child succeed to secondary education level, and to see that each child above average becomes an intellectual,? said Mrs Gopal.She is driven by a passion to see the performance of rural children be on par with that of their Georgetown counterparts. She has observed that the children of the capital city have traditionally been recognized as the ones producing the top performances, a state of affairs that has impelled her to continue her proficient teachings in her own school, which already attracts children throughout Region Three and a few from the East Bank of Demerara.Recounting how well the school was able to perform despite opening its doors during the latter part of last year, Mrs Gopal said the NGSA application forms were due on September 30, 2011. Forty-two pupils were entered for the examination with a mere seven months to meet the deadline of completing the syllabus. However, Mrs Gopal worked persistently to prepare her pupils and after the stipulated period had expired ?the pupils? hard work, dedication and commitment to their studies eventually allowed them to reap the fruits of their labour.?She proudly recalled that it was heartening when the results of the examination were unveiled through the media and one of the two children who secured the ninth position in the country was one of her pupils.?Excitement created restlessness among the other children since the details of the results were to follow the next day. They all waited with bated breath to hear the good news of their success,? Gopal informed.According to the teacher, it was with limited resources at hand that she was able to introduce remedial techniques to her pupils. She revealed too how she planned different methods to help the weaknesses of each pupil.Support was also forthcoming from a former pupil whom she taught at the Leonora Primary School, Nirvani Thumbasamy,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysnear.us@#$%&/]jerseys nfl wholesale[/url], who later passed to attend Queen?s College.?Her greatly appreciated assistance in the Grade Six class has added to the school?s results,? said Mrs Gopal.Inspired by the results that were obtained this year,[url=http://www.cheapnfljerseysmr.us@#$%&/]Cheap NFL Jerseys Supply[/url], she has plans to challenge her pupils to churn out even greater performances with the use of high tech equipment.?For instance,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysnear.us@#$%&/]wholesale jerseys[/url], most of the teaching will be done through a power point system and a projector, with the Grade Five and Six classes?A separate movie theatre room has been set up, where the presentations on a big screen will be viewed,? she related.Her renewed efforts will be coupled by her staff of 13 young and vibrant teachers who have been displaying ?a high degree of commitment to the job. They need minimum supervision with regards to subject matters and are always punctual and only absent themselves in situations that warrant urgent attention?.With intense supervision of the curriculum by Mrs Gopal, staff member ?Sir? Ravi Tulkan has been able to mould the minds of a batch of pupils who currently make up the Grade Six class which will participate in the NGSA next year.With a homely and comfortable environment, the school is outfitted with libraries in each section, since according to Mrs Gopal ?reading is the key to learning.?Additionally, there are 12 internet-ready computers that both Grade Five and Six pupils can access to do research for assignments. Besides academics, the school affords all-round development to each child by facilitating educational tours, cultural programmes, sports and other recreational activities.
