Whiteoak has high expectation of her staff as their development directly affects outcomes, therefore routine up to date training is mandatory at Whiteoak. We provide a high-quality blended curriculum consisting of approved Nigerian & United Kingdom curriculum delivered in a world-class learning environment.

We have made available resources to make the learning experience as informative and pleasurable as possible such as an up to date library, computer, arts & science lab, music room, playground and pool. We spare no cost to maintain a decent teacher to pupil ratio thereby ensuring every child has adequate attention. Our environment creates a balance for the children, beyond academics we ensure the children learn valuable life skills and are happy and trained to have respect for the individual.
