Frequently Asked Questions
Does ₦3,000 cover all three subjects for the whole session?
Yes. One payment of ₦3,000 gets you First, Second, and Third Term notes for Basic Science, Information Technology, and PHE, all for Primary 1.
Why does Information Technology focus so much on booting and the desktop?
At Primary 1, Information Technology (Computer Studies) starts with basic computer parts and safety, then moves into practical skills like starting up a computer, booting, and personalizing the desktop, building hands-on familiarity before more advanced topics in later grades.
Does this scheme apply to all Primary 1 classes?
The topic sequence follows the standard scheme of work, though individual schools sometimes adjust pacing around their own midterm and exam dates.
Can I get the lesson notes already written?
Yes. We can write the full set for you across all three subjects for Primary 1, the whole session. Message us on WhatsApp to get started.
