About Us

We aim to ensure that you and your children soon recognise the Buckswood difference. This means that this school will look different, feel different, do things differently, and offer different opportunities for your children.

Buckswood offers a personalised study path, with exceptional levels of support and guidance. Buckswood will offer a traditional set of values taught within a 21st century, British framework.

Our teachers are asked to show how they will offer the Buckswood difference in all that they do, whether in study visits, practical workshops, booster sessions, revision programmes, visiting lecturer visits or overseas trips.

The campus in Abeokuta, Ogun State (an hour from Lagos) is a little corner of Britain providing a fabulous physical environment in which to provide British schooling to Nigerian and other West African pupils determined to succeed in an evermore competitive world.

Pupils study a UK curriculum and prepare for UK university entry assisted by their knowledgeable teaching staff.

The school is a full boarding facility offering extensive extra-curricular opportunities, including the chance to meet other Buckswood pupils in the UK and Tbilisi, either on revision programmes or at sports competitions. Buckswood Nigeria is the first such venture by an established British independent school.

Why Buckswood School Nigeria?

Parents select Buskswood School Nigeria because of the unique qualities that offer phenomenal services to their children’s education. We maintain small size of classroom (15 students in a form class), to preserve a more home-like atmosphere, where the care and welfare of students is a priority.

Small classes ensure pupils receive more individual attention with an emphasis on traditional values and good manners. Students study the British and Nigerian National Curriculum and the school offers a host recognized qualifications and subjects to suit the enlightened Nigerian Community. The school is set on a beautiful landscape, student-friendly atmosphere and a safe campus.

We excel at unlocking hidden talents in all our students and believe in preparing them to be citizens of the world with an emphasis on personal growth as well as academic achievement.

As a co-educational school, we believe that students should grow up together, relate to one another and should be well-nurtured in a family like environment.
