Port Harcourt - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the availability of international schools? What has been your general experience with them, if any?
Our company has its own school within the camp, which does take in children from other companies when there is room. It has over 100 pupils and follows the UK system as well as having a Dutch section also. Morale is high and class sizes low (about 10 per class on average). Once children are 12, there is no longer adequate education for them here and most move on to boarding schools. The school is very accessible and the staff very approachable and competent. Within Port Harcourt there are other schools such as the Italian School, to name but one, with good reputations. The schools regularly interact with sporting competitions. - Apr 2006
