our story

Jofegan International Day and Boarding School started as a dream in 1986. The dream of establishing the best academic institution available. Where students will receive holistic education. And be prepared for a future world with all the skills they’ll need.

The dream, like a seed planted by the river side, grew and brought forth fruit in 2008, when it was actualized at Bida, Niger State, Nigeria. With zero naira (N0) and in a rented apartment. But with a clear understanding of the irresistible benefits we wanted to offer our parents and students. Through our Creche (Day Care), Prenursery, Nursery, Primary and Secondary educational services.

Your Child Will Be Part of a Global Community (Diversity)

 

Jofegan International School is unique and distinctive because of it’s cultural, ethnic and religious diversity. It’s home to students from different backgrounds.

 Your ward has the opportunity to be part of this multicultural and diversified community. Making new friends. Broadening his perspectives about other students’ culture.

This builds and inspires teamwork, tolerance, confidence and nationhood. It makes them to understand that there is unity in diversity – achieving a lot together despite coming from different backgrounds.

It also enables them to have a global outlook. And how they can be part of a global community.

A Place for Your Children Despite Their Abilities (Inclusion)

Students have different abilities. Physically, emotionally, mentally and intellectually.

Our believe is that a program that pertains to a particular age group of students should be provided with equal opportunities to the students. Irrespective of a child’s shortcoming or disabilities.

We admit every student in our educational programs. Free from all the hindrances and challenges.

This enables the students to support themselves. And to understand the value of cooperation and coordination.

It also broadens their perspectives. Accepting their differences with open mind.
