About Bridge Nigeria Primary Schools

Learn more about Bridge Schools in Nigeria

Since Bridge Nigeria opened its first school in 2015, it has been delivering improved learning outcomes for children in low-income communities across Lagos and Osun states.

In its years of operation, Bridge pupils have topped the charts by performing exceptionally during the National Common Entrance Examinations since 2019 when Bridge pupils sat for NCEE for the first time. These and other performance results have earned Bridge pupils scholarships and admissions into some of the top secondary schools in Nigeria.

Together with our teachers, school leaders, families and communities, we operate schools that deliver academic excellence by accelerating learning, building leadership skills and providing a caring environment that supports growth. 

We are a gateway to success!  

Bridge Nigeria is a strong partner in education:

We are committed to helping achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4: ensuring inclusive and quality education for all. We believe every child in Nigeria has the right to a high-quality education. We work in partnership with communities, teachers, and parents to deliver quality education for primary and pre-primary children.

Through our life-changing education, we provide Nigerian children and their families the gateway to a better future.
