The Anambra Education sector has once again demonstrated why it remains a model of academic excellence, innovation, and global competitiveness in Nigeria.
In a remarkable recognition of its outstanding contributions to education, Regina Pacis International School, Onitsha, has been officially invited to the prestigious 5th Africa Education Summit 2027 by Global Skills Hub, United Kingdom, where it will be honoured as one of Africa’s Outstanding Schools.
The award acknowledges the School’s exceptional commitment to academic excellence, innovation, and the advancement of quality education across Nigeria and the African continent.
This latest international recognition comes on the heels of the school’s impressive performance in the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), further reinforcing Anambra’s reputation as a hub of academic excellence.
Adding to the growing list of achievements, Regina Pacis International School recently clinched both the first and second positions in the Junior Category at the TechnovationGirls South-East Regional Pitch Event held in Aba, Abia State. The feat crowned the school as South-East Champion and earned it the honour of representing the region at the national level.
These achievements are not isolated successes; they are clear indicators of the strength, resilience, and forward-thinking nature of the Anambra education system. They reflect a learning environment that promotes academic excellence, technological innovation, creativity, and global relevance.
As Anambra schools continue to excel in academics, science, technology, and innovation, the state is steadily consolidating its position as Nigeria’s education capital and a leading contributor to Africa’s educational advancement.
Indeed, the Anambra education story is one of excellence without borders, where students are not only competing but consistently emerging among the very best on regional, national, and international stages.
