Director of Studies, College
Fatimo Olabisi Okeowo is a passionate educationist with a strong desire for fostering positive behaviour in children. Her educational philosophy is based on giving children the right support while working in collaboration with them to harness their potentials and make progress.

This philosophy has culminated in a track record of helping children exceed in their academic expectations.

After graduating from the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria with a Diploma (1998) and a B.Sc. (2004) both in Integrated Science Education, she has gone further to obtain a PGCEi from the University of Nottingham.

She has a diverse background in Education in the Northern and Western parts of Nigeria. Over the years, she has gained proficiency in the pedagogy of the British and Nigerian curricula and has taught Science for over 13 years.

Fatimo joined Meadow Hall School in 2007 as a class teacher for Primary 5 and rose to the position of a Year Group Leader, a position she excelled in and maintained for over 4 years. It was not surprising therefore that she was moved to the College section of the school as HOD, Science for Infant, Junior school and College. In this capacity, she ensured that the three sections of the school maintained a seamless flow of the curriculum from one Key Stage to another.

After a year in the College, she was appointed Vice Principal Academia, a position she held for 6 years rising to be Principal, Meadow Hall College and now the Director of Studies College. In this capacity, she has mentored teachers and students, most of whom have testified to her good works and exemplary level of commitment to excellence.

With her years of professional experience and exposure to courses and best practices both within and outside Nigeria, Fatimo Okeowo is highly versatile in 21st century teaching approaches which she passionately shares with teachers as a Principal and as a Subject Matter Expert for Meadow Hall Consult to many schools.

She is an ardent believer in the principles of Emotional Intelligence as an avenue for managing interpersonal behaviours and interactions, Teamwork and Collaboration as growth strategies for optimum team performance.

Fatimo is married with two lovely boys and enjoys touching and changing the lives of young children and teenagers.
