There are schools and there are schools. That’s the feeling you’ll get after going through this list of arguably the most expensive schools in the city of Port Harcourt.

Compiling a list of this nature takes time, energy and research and even after all these have been put in, it is not out of place to find out that you missed a school hidden somewhere in town whose fees dwarf those on your list. So as you go through this list, bear in mind that the situation might have changed.

5. Bloombreed High School

Located at Boskel Road, off Port Harcourt/Aba Expressway in Rivers State, this school is not your average school or for an average income earner. The school which comprises of a Day-care, Nursery, Primary and Secondary section goes for as high as 1,500,000 Naira per year for its pupils/students. Very spacious, conducive learning environment highly equipped library Science, ICT, language, technical drawing and musical laboratories highly qualified and resourceful teachers Sports and recreational facilities—these are some of the facilities the school claims to have. Although the amount paid by the students in this school might seem outrageous, on this list, it is relatively modest.

4. Port Harcourt International Campus

Port Harcourt International Campus, Heliconia Park, Adjacent to NLNG, Eastern Bypass, Port Harcourt. This is a school set up to serve Nigerian and Expatriate families living within the Onne Camp. PHIC only provides Day-care, Nursery and Primary facilities. Located in an environment that accommodates a state of the art restaurant and bar which is also open to both resident and non-resident parents, Heliconia Park can also be tagged a tourist attraction. Its fees are paid in Euro and range from €10,500 to €11,000 which when converted to Naira ranges between 2,334,168 and 2,445,330 million Naira earning PHIC the number four spot.

3. Norwegian International School

Located at 11 Rotimi Amaechi Road, GRA Phase 3 Port Harcourt, it makes use of the English National Curriculum, together with the curricular standards of the Cambridge International Primary Programme (CIPP) and the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE). A breakdown of their fees for new intakes shows that #250,000 is enrolment fee, #250,000 for development fee, 1,843,750 for tuition, an extra £600 and #20,000 for PTA—putting these together gives you a total of 2,547,647 million Naira, putting it on the number 3 spot.

2. Greenoak International School

Being a member of the Association of International Schools in Africa and having a hybrid curriculum, which is derived from the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), the British/American curricula and elements of the Nigerian curriculum is no mean feat. Greenoak International School is located at St. Michael's Crescent, Off Tombia Road Extension, GRA Phase 3, Port Harcourt. Exposing your children to the kind of facilities present at Greenoak International School comes at a price, and the manager of the school have pegged that price at 2,800,000 million Naira per year for new students while subsequent yearly fees fall to 1,900,000 million Naira for boarding and 1,500,000 for day. 2,800,000 million Naira is no small amount, but on this list, Greenoak could only afford to make second place.

1. Charles Dale Memorial International School

This is one school whose name has become a household name. Not because every household can afford to have a child there, but more like because the fees leave us amazed. Charles Dale Memorial International School is located at 12 Army Range Road off Eneka/Igwuruta Road Port Harcourt, Rivers State and can boast of one of the best facilities in Rivers State and Nigeria as a whole. Owned and managed by the wife of a former Governor of Rivers State, King Alfred Diete Spiff, one wouldn’t have expected something less. “With great facilities and quality education comes great fees”—Anonymous. As a strictly boarding school equipped with 24 hours surveillance and a school curriculum that is essentially an integration of the Nigerian and British National curricula, the fees for new students is put at 2,951,156 million Naira per year and drops to about 2,040,000 million Naira from the next year. This is a lot of money, and as such has earned Charles Dale the number one spot.
