Our story
At Elite Schools, learning is personal. We work with families to build curiosity and character and to help each child find out who they can become.
Lady Mrs. Amaka Okorie
Proprietress, Elite Schools
We want Elite to be a home away from home, where children feel they belong and are encouraged to grow in knowledge, character and confidence.
Under the proprietorship of Lady Mrs. Amaka Okorie, families and educators work together to look after each child and help them make the most of what lies ahead.

The meaning behind our crest.
The blue shield
The shield means protection, and blue represents health. Together they stand for our commitment to protect and build the mental state of every child, for long term healthy living.
Three red figures
Three figures rising to great heights. Three represents wholeness: beginning, middle and end, and body, soul and spirit.
The laurel leaves
The laurel is formed as leaves on purpose, because we believe in growth. Change is constant and growth is inevitable. The laurel stands for our steady pursuit of progress.
Seven coloured stars
The stars signify the knowledge of good and truth. Seven represents perfection, the perfect light, beauty, good and truth.
One school from Nursery to Senior Secondary.
Nursery and Primary build foundations. Junior and Senior Secondary deepen knowledge and responsibility and prepare students for the next step. Our 2026/2027 theme, Identity, asks children to find their abilities, think about their choices and express their ideas with confidence.
Come and see the school.
Look around the campus, meet the team and ask about the next step for your child.
