Beautiful landscaping has been done at the assembly area. Other projects accomplished include Purchase of a new school bus, departmental offices, the water project, a sick bay for the students and a laboratory named Yoba House, renovation of all the dormitories and renovation of staff houses . Current on-going projects include Construction of a new dormitory with a capacity of 900 students. The school has been upgraded to a five stream school with 880 students.The school is equipped with a library, which offers a range of reference books, periodicals and university prospectuses.
