We are Nigeria's first Thinking School
How your child will benefit.
A Thinking School supports students to think "outside the box." Students will be able to deconstruct their own learning process and even find out what works best for them. The Thinking School approach is not just a subject but an approach to be used by every teacher in every subject. Thinking will help students tackle difficult questions more creatively.
This very exciting initiative forms part of the Greensprings School's goal of redefining education in Africa.
We ultimately aim to support our alumni so that they can develop solutions that will not only help their own families and communities but can also help Nigeria and Africa to move forward.

What We Have And How We Do It
State-of-the-art classroom designed to develop interest in preschool learning
The fit-for-purpose classrooms and play areas are carefully designed to develop keen interest in learning and sense of orderliness in children.
Stimulating learning environment
We provide a stimulating and enjoyable learning environment that is required to prepare students to become global citizens. The environment is aesthetically pleasing and simple, developing a sense of splendor in the child.
Reality and nature
An experience of the natural environment is given to help the child achieve harmony with nature.
Movement & play
According to Maria Montessori, play is regarded as children's work and movement is an essential part of developmental growth. We ensure that children engage in creative play, which helps to build their social skills, language acquisition and self esteem.
Sense training
This develops the child’s awareness. It helps to build the required concepts for learning and sounds necessary for appropriate language development.
Practical life exercises
These include elementary movements and preliminary activities such as classroom conduct, development of fine motor skills -- pouring, transferring, sweeping, opening and closing -- care for self, care for the environment and exercises for the development of social skills, grace and courtesy.
Sensorial education
This develops the following senses of the child: chromatic (sense of colours), hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste and the muscular dimension (fine and gross control). Sensorial materials with control of errors help to refine the child’s senses.
World class, highly qualified teachers
Our qualified teachers have the ability to attend to every child according to the unique need, relentlessly making sure every child develops the desired ability to succeed.
