Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions you will ever make as a parent. If you live in or around Odo-Ona Elewe, New Garage, Challenge, or anywhere in Ibadan, Oyo State, you have probably searched online for the best private school in Ibadan — and felt overwhelmed by the options.
At The Premier Cornerstone Academy, we believe the answer is simple: a school should do more than teach. It should build character, confidence, and competence. Here are five reasons families across Ibadan trust us with their children’s future.
1. A Complete Educational Journey — From Creche to Secondary School
Why change schools every few years? At The Premier Cornerstone Academy, your child can grow with us from our warm Foundation (Nursery) Department through Primary School and into our Secondary School. Our reception classes are designed to feel like a nursery environment, helping your child settle in gently through learning-through-play — because when the foundation is right, everything that follows is smoother.
2. Practical, Hands-On Learning — Not Just Textbooks
Most of your child’s work in our school is practical, investigational, and based on solving real-life problems. From our modern science laboratory to our ICT-equipped computer studies programme, students don’t just memorise — they discover.

3. Every Child Gets Personal Attention
In our Primary section, every class teacher is supported by a fully trained Teaching Assistant, with additional support staff available for children who need extra help with reading. No child is left behind — and no child’s potential goes unnoticed.
4. Seven Specialist Departments Driving Academic Excellence
Our secondary section operates a holistic management system across seven key departments — English, Mathematics, Sciences, ICT, Craft & Technology, Physical Education, and Humanities — each with a clear vision. Whether your child dreams of becoming an engineer, doctor, designer, or entrepreneur, we provide the pathway.
5. Character, Discipline and Safety Come First
Our mission is to develop productive, academically competent and responsible individuals. Our clear behavioural policies, Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy, and strong parent partnership (through our regular Parents Teachers Forum) create a disciplined, caring, and secure environment where every child can thrive.
