  1. What purpose is this listing targeted to serve?
    It is unimaginable that this type of information is given in 2018 context and none of the school listing has email or phone number with which parents of potential pupils can make contact and get more information.

    Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well and it is wrong to assume the lack of intelligence of the readers.

  2. Some of the discounts may be half off the pizza, a share off as
    well as free drinks with the purchase of the pizza.
    And then, you have the sacrifice of God’s son for that
    people on the Roman cross, the best expression of God’s love beyond
    almost any magnitude of comprehension. The Central while stating governments
    invoke ESMA to curb the voice of agitating people, but
    it takes almost no time to offer benefits to
    politicians and bureaucrats.

  3. Without Meadow Hall Education(www,meadowhalleducation.org) on this list, it is very clear that the above list is not authentic. Kindly get your information from the right source and you will find out that Meadow Hall Education must be in top 5 best schools in Nigeria. Thank

  4. This is very enlightening
    But what of Gloryland secondary school in Igarra.
    The truth is that there are some salient schools that are highly populated and good educationally but are not listed here at all.
    Please check out gloryland prmary and seconday school Edo state.

  5. What are the criteria used for this selection? Some colleges were named twice thus robbing others of being mentioned. A great school like COLLEGE OF COMMERCE WARRI was not mentioned. But why. That college is our Harvard Business School in the Niger Delta. I hope it should appear in the first fifty in the next ranking!

  6. If great school like hope waddell tranning institute calabar is not there then those criticising might be seen to be correct anyway keep it up and accept corrections

  7. If great school like hope waddell tranning institute is not there then those criticising might be seen to be correct anywau keep it up and accept corrections

  8. Why is Mbj (Marxist Brothers Juniorate) not on your list. 2nd best performing school for 2015,2016 – WAEC rating. You didn’t do your research well. Stop collecting money and advertising schools.

  9. Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary, Ikorodu
    Best WAEC result 2013 (Lagos) came from the school
    They also take Cambridge O’level exams, best student 2016 had 1A* 6A’s in 7 subjects

  10. The criteria for the list is absent which makes the list of little use. If WAEC performance is used most of the school here won’t be on the list. WAEC is the equalizer. And don’t tell me performance in Cambridge or another foreign exam is your criterion. That would be very defective because most students would be excluded from the criterion. A criterion like that favours only students whose parents can afford foreign exams.

  11. And d famous DMGS Onitsha? Jephtha port harcourt, MayBlossoms Enugu or even UNSSEC enugu? Where are all these schools. Na only abuja and Lagos schools dey abi? Abuja wey just start. Ok naaa

  12. I am highly bias because of this your ranking . l highly expected to see Whiteplains British School Abuja at the very top of that list . In surveys conducted in Lagos in 2010 and 2011 respectively , Whiteplains British School Abuja came out as Teen ICT Favourite School in
    Nigeria . The school also bagged United Nations Award by United Nations Special Consultative Status (ECOSOC) . In 2012 Whiteplains was awarded as the Best Secondary School of the year by Institute of Government Research and Development . Just to mention but these few . What you guys are doing is not good at all and it has a ripple effects on good schools that have worked very hard over the years to reach where they are today.

  13. I couldn’t find Babington Macaulay Junior Seminary on the list, likewise the Home Science Association Secondary School which made the best 50 schools that excelled in the 2015 WAEC. The person who compiled the list is either biased or uninformed.

  14. can you please explain the criteria for the rating, because Caleb college is one of the best school in Lagos in term of discipline, outstanding results without assistance during examinations and facilities. I think this rating is not fair.

  15. Thank you for your publication. It is very important to let the public know what are your criteria for selecting these schools. CALEB GROUP OF SCHOOLS MAGODO And CALEB INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE LEKKI should make the list considering their pedigree in academic and moral excellence.

    Kindly revisit and republish with CALEB inclusive. You need to visit CALEB and see things for yourself and make your own judgement.

    Did you visit CALEB GROUP OF SCHOOLS MAGODO?

    As a parent, I am extremely delighted and satisfied with the level of Academic excellence and moral standards in CALEB group of Schools.

    Thank you.

    • Caleb School-Alade Magodo does not deserve to make the list. The majority of their teachers have poor spoken English, let alone void of dictions. The teachers are majorly comprised of local and in exposed fellows and they beat school pupils like goats. Only their top officials are of good quality but the teachers are not well trained despite being substandard as at recruitment time. If Caleb can correct these, perhaps they can qualify to be listed.

  16. Please can you post Nigerian school rankings by WAEC results for 2013,2014 & 2015 so that we can see which of these schools are consistent

    Also how can one find out the IGCSE results for these schools???

  17. no school from crossriver state not even the prestigious federal science college OGOJA not even deeper life high school calabar AND why are most ofthe schools in abuja and lagos.

  18. I think the list captured some good schools, however, the listing order is not accurate. In addition, omission of certain great schools with outstanding academic and infrastructural records is unpardonable. Where is Int’l Schl Ibadan ISI, Holy Child College Lagos, Stella Maris Abuja, Louisville Girls Ogun state and some more? Certain schools that made the list based on past glory ought to have been replaced with these. Overall, it was a good list.

  19. Listings as these can only be meaningful when there are contact phone and email addresses through which prospective students and their parents can inquire further.

    Good effort but little utility.

  20. What of top faith international college, mkpatak, akwa ibom state. They won kings college, lagos in national quiz competition and came overal first. Even cowbell mathematics competition three times.

  21. Information about the best schools can only be made and gotten correctly by the appropriate agency saddled with the responsibility of such task, in collaboration with States’ Ministry of Education, as well as Federal Ministry of Education.

  22. Personally, tis ratings centred on high profile/luxurious sch. REHOBOTH COLLEGE ILORIN is up to d task 4 middle-class parents.its shd b included in d list.

  23. this research is invalid…not because my school was not included but because the researcher did not have a criteria to guide him or her on which school is the best…so Nigerian finder think before you paste cause there are many good secondary schools in Nigeria and stop committing a fallacy here ok…

  24. Where is Thomas Adewumi International college,Oko.Kwara state….was among the best 10best schools in weac result for th past 5years now and among the golden category of the best private schools in Nigeria 2014/2015 session

  25. ATLANTIC hall is a very good school. It deserves second place. Although, Loyola Jesuit should be in first place. How can kings college be in first place? Have these people even been there before? BTW, a-hall is a beautiful school. You should try going to their website. It is http://www.atlantichall.com. Thank you

  26. This list is an absolute hoax.
    There are schools on this list that change principal every 3 months to a year. The longest stay is 18 months. Don’t pay their staff or pay them very badly
    There are schools on this list with shocking results both in the IGCSE and the WAEC.
    There are schools on this list whose facilities are shocking, horribly shocking – particularly the condition of their toilets.
    What are the criteria for your listing? Parents and students be warned . Do not go by this list. Check out the schools for yourself. Private does not mean better! NOT AT ALL!!!. There is private and private!
    Time a few teachers and parents and pupils got together to make a list of good schools in Nigeria.

  27. What is the criteria for judgment? It is as per academic excellence or what? Some reputable schools are missing here, especially some missionary schools. Well done all the same, but the list can be improved upon. God bless!

  28. This post is not correct. Where is Our Lady of Fatima College, Creek Road Gborokiri. Rivers State. Pls revisit this list. So many good schools left out. God Bless u.

  29. Nigerian Finder deserves a commendation for this publication! however, is this for 2014 or 2015. Oftentimes schools improve both in infrastructure and academic records. So it wise you do it an annual thing. You may check out National competitions such as Cowbell Mathematics competitions, Nigerian Olympiad competitions organise by NMC Abuja, American Mathematics competition etc.

    Further,

  30. This is total trash where there is premier academy lugbe abuja how come KING OF KINGS ACADEMY LUGBE ABUJA IS MISSING.
    Where there is Hallmak itanla ondo how come HOMAJ INTERNATIONAL SECONDARY SCHOOL ONDO is missing….RUBISH LIKE DIS ARE NOT MENT 2 be brought out to the public.
