Abstract

School Community The administration, staff, and students form the school community. The school community is the home for role modelling and proper upbringing of students focusing on their proper cognitive, affective and psychomotor development. The teachers’ innovative pedagogical approaches help the students for this holistic development. There has been a call for secondary schools in Nigeria as citadel of learning to offer holistic education to students in order to equip them morally, socially and intellectually for the demands of the 21st Century. Secondary schools are places where the character of the adolescents is moulded. Good character is the life of right conduct in relation to oneself and to others. The choices that the student makes here is of paramount importance in judging his or her character. Therefore, good character constitutes knowing the good, desiring the good and doing the good.
