APPLICATION FOR A FACILITY OF N1.0 MILLION
I am the proprietor of t xxxxxxxxxxxx Located along xxxxxxxxx Ibadan. I started the school in 1997 and I have invested on the land and building, fixture as well as the school buses. My total investment to date is estimated at about N10million.
Now that there has been a stable patronage for the past 3 years, it has become imperative that the facilities should be upgraded before the commencement of the 2013/2014 academic session and also to properly accommodate our JSS arm.
Apart from the steady increase in public registration, one or two schools located in the same vicinity are planning to move to their permanent sites and we are sure to be one of beneficiaries of the public that consider the permanent sites of these schools as far away because we are already on our permanent site. We believe our pupil population will go up to 250 in the next two years.
The upgrading of the existing facilities should be completed before the commencement of the next academic year in readiness for the increase. The upgrading project is expected to cost N1.5 and we required a medium term facility of N1.0M for 12months.
The repayment, interest and bank charges will be paid from the school fees as shown in the cash forecast. For the past three years, a maximum of sixty percent of fee was used for salary and other expenses to run the school.
With this proposed upgrading there will be more pupils and the running cost as a percentage of the fees will even reduce further.

I am submitting this report to you so as to appraise the project.
Our level of patronage in the last 5 years goes to confirm that we have acceptable academic and moral standards.
If the facility is approved, we have as security a landed property located at XXXXXXX area covered with a certificate of occupancy. A valuation report and photographs of property attracted.
We would implore you to please consider our application as soon as practicable in view of the fact that the project must be completed before the end of Aug 2013.
We thank you for your co-operation

INTRODUCTION
The south western part of Nigeria is leading in the number of enrolment in schools in the country. This is because the average south westerner believes in qualitative education. Since 1956 when the free education program was introduced by the government led by the great Chief Obafemi Awolow, investment in qualitative education has been on the increase.
The general public in this geo-political area has complete confidence in competition and consequently a number of private individuals and groups introduced private Schools to complement government efforts. In Ibadan, a number of private Schools were established and carved out a fantastic reputation of educational excellence for themselves. A few of these schools are Maryhill Nursery Primary School and Baptist Nursery and Primary School.
These private Schools could not cope with the ever expanding demand and others with various degrees of efficiency sprang up.
With the ever increasing cost of transportation, parents started to look for schools in their catchment areas particularly when shuttling from their places of work to collect their children form school became a serious problem. After a careful analysis of the primary educations sub sector, XXXXXXXXXXX was established after seeking and obtaining the approval of Oyo State Government in 1997.
I, XXXXXXXXXX is the promoter of the school.
THE SCHOOL
XXXXXXXXXX Academy is located along XXXXXXXXXXX, directly facing the famous XxxxxxStop. The school serves the following communities Oyo State Housing Corporation’s Estate, Ojoo Military Barracks, Bashorun, Akobo Oju Irin, Omolayo area, General Gas area as well as Anifalaje area.
The population had hovered around 140 and hope it will increase appreciably with this proposed upgrading.
Year Pupil Population
2010/2011 140
20111/2012 135
2012/2013 138
The school has a total of 10 classrooms and a big hall which will be used for 5 classrooms. To these we hope to add another two to make a total of 17 classrooms. In addition, we have a school shop and conveniences.
Primary arm 10Rooms
Junior Secondary Arm 7Rooms
We also have two functioning two buses to cope with the expected increase in pupils to be ferried to school especially from Odogbo barracks.
The present facilities must be upgraded to some extent to complete effectively with two exiting reputable Schools in the same area. Our mission is to provide superior services to the parents and pupils and consequently we have decided to upgrade our facilities before the commencement of the next academic session in September 2013.

Assumptions.
We have allowed 4% for debt even as most people pay even if hey carry till next term
Pupils population does not include the ones we have given scholarships as ours
Own corporate social responsibility.
In the secondary we expect 4 to join our present 11 students in JSS1. join our present 11 in JS1 to make 15 in JS2.
We expect at least 15 in our new JS1. feasible, even in our first year we started with 15.
With this upgrading getting 15 will be a child’s play
In the primary, our leaving finalists will be replaced with new ones to maintain our present
population of 130.
So, we expect 130 in primary and 30 in Secondary.
For transportation, we expect at least 60 at N6000 per term. The least charged by competitors s N7000 per term

Marketing
We are using SMS, word of mouth recommendation, fliers and banners.
Also using personal influence at the soldiers mess and joints.
We are doing a total re-branding. We re-sensitize our members and reorganize.
Staff will be uniformed from Monday to Thursday interchanging blue and white. Men to tie up.
We will have a uniformed gate man.
Our environment will be sparklingly clean.
The facelift itself is marketing.
Conclusion.
From the projected profit and loss account and the cash forecast giving a profit of a about a million naira after allowing for the repayment of the loan, it means this business can service this loan.
It is a feasible project and should be encouraged.
Note. You may be asked to submit more information which you should. A common question is your plan B for repayment should the project revenue not be met. For example, in this case should the school not meet the projected pupils enrollment, the revenue will drop and you should be able to convince them of alternative plan.
You can also elaborate on your marketing plan.
