Pure Springs International School

About Pure Springs

Education with purpose.
Character with care.

Pure Springs International School is a growing learning community where academic development, character formation, creativity and practical experience come together.

Our Story

A school built around the whole child.

Pure Springs International School has developed into a close-knit, technology-conscious learning community where academics, character, creativity and practical experience are developed together.

From its foundation in Kubwa to its growing presence in Asaba, the school has continued to develop a learning environment that supports students academically while also giving them room to discover their interests, develop confidence and take responsibility.

The Pure Springs experience extends beyond the traditional classroom. Technology, science, reading, sports, creativity, leadership, competitions and practical activities all contribute to the development of students.

Our Director

A vision born from a parent's search.

When Mrs. Maryann Ugo struggled to find the kind of school she wanted for her children in Kubwa, she began driving them into town every morning to give them the education she believed they deserved.

That experience opened her eyes to a wider need within the community — and planted the seed for what would become Pure Springs International School.

In 2012, that vision became a clear calling: to build a school where children would be deliberately prepared for life, where academic excellence, creativity, character and values could grow together.

“We are established to raise children who will naturally be ahead.”

More Than a School

Every child is a destiny entrusted to our care.

From its early years, Pure Springs has been shaped by a belief that education is about more than academic performance. Children should have the opportunity to discover their abilities, develop their talents and grow into confident young people equipped for life.

Looking Ahead

The journey continues.

Today, Pure Springs carries a growing legacy of strong academic standards, excellence and creativity. The next chapter is about consolidating what has been built while expanding the horizons of students through greater international engagement and broader opportunities.

The vision remains the same: raising children who will naturally be ahead.

Our Philosophy

Learning, care and the formation of character.

We believe education should prepare young people not only to perform well academically, but also to think independently, contribute meaningfully and navigate the world with confidence and integrity.

Academic Excellence

We challenge students to develop strong academic foundations, think critically and approach learning with curiosity and purpose.

Character & Care

We believe education goes beyond academics. Students are guided to develop discipline, dignity, responsibility and respect for others.

Practical Learning

Learning becomes meaningful when students can apply knowledge. Our approach encourages projects, practical experiences, competitions and active participation.

Technology & Innovation

Technology is integrated into the learning experience, helping students build the digital awareness and confidence needed for a changing world.

The Pure Springs Experience

More than a classroom.

Students learn within an ecosystem that brings together classroom instruction, technology, science, arts, sports, recreation, pastoral support and practical experiences.

Our programmes and activities are designed to encourage participation. From technology projects and competitions to clubs, leadership opportunities and educational visits, students are encouraged to learn by doing.

At the heart of it all is a simple idea: every student should have the opportunity to grow academically, personally and socially.
