The curriculum design for Ostrich Success International College recognises that the world of 2020 will be very different to the world of today and that as the pace of global change increases, so therefore does the need for flexibility.

Ostrich Success International College curriculum policy is based on our mission of enabling our students to equip our students with the necessary skills to meet the challenges they will face on leaving school, whilst also consistently competing with the very best Nigerian schools in national standards of achievement. We seek to nurture the talents of all students and celebrate success in a diversity of academic disciplines, whilst offering learning opportunities which are differentiated and personalised to cater for different learning styles and aptitudes. In aspiring to be a centre of excellence in teaching and learning, we place strong emphasis on the use of technology as a tool for learning.
