That was the first meeting between a prospective student of Morgan’s Learning Centre (MLC) and Orin Morgan, the man behind the new private school in Georgetown, who has been teaching his entire life. Thus began an interview, which included questions such as the child’s aspirations in life.
Sir Morgan, as he has been fondly called from the time he started teaching at the Richard Ishmael Secondary School many years ago, is not one to adapt to the norm. He does things differently since for him when children leave his school they must not only excel academically. He takes the role of second parent seriously and wants to ensure certain values are instilled.
