The proprietress and teachers of Bright Benny Schools have been praised for their outstanding qualities and the impact they are making on their pupils.
This was the assessment of Mrs.Chinwendu Udeoganyala, one of the parents of the graduating pupils at the 13th edition of the graduation ceremony of the school. She noted that the school has great teachers and an enviable standard, a secure environment which also made her bring her children to the school.
Mrs.Okeakolam Ifeyinwa, whose child was among the graduating pupils, could not contain her happiness with the management and teachers for their impact on her children, According to her, the graduating child is the third among her children, as the two elderly ones who passed through the walls of Bright Benny Schools are both doing well in their different secondary schools.
”The school is excellent and it is located in an environment that’s conducive for learning and tidy too’’, she observed.
Another parent whose child was among the graduands Mrs. Angela Okafor, praised the school for the significant change in her children in their intonation and spoken English, as people have been asking about the school they attend since they relocated to Ago Palace, Okota, She said, the school is first among equals because of the quality foundation they impacted on her children.
” They think that because people live in Amukoko, they cannot access good education. Still, many schools out there are no match to Bright Benny, even though what parents pay as tuition fees is more like lesson fees in Bright Benny compared to other schools,’’ Mrs. Okafor added.
Mrs Okoli whose son is called Professor because of his academic excellence has two children in the school. She was proud when her children went on holiday at her sister’s place in Ikotun, where they exhibited great brilliance. Because of this, her sister who is also a school proprietress has decided to poach teachers at Bright Benny to improve the capacity of her teachers.
The story is the same for Mrs. Francisca Ezenwa, whose three children attend the school. She showered encomiums on the teachers of the school for the way they care for the children.
“I have peace of mind when my children go to school that they are in a secure environment, though we don’t live far from the school. You know there are some schools one will be restless when the children go to school and the quality of teaching they receive is second to none,” she chipped in.
The story of Chinedu, the son of Mrs. Anayo is touching because the boy was unusually quiet and timid before he joined the school. However through the dedicated efforts of Auntie Blessing and Uncle Rasaq, “my boy became responsive and smart in his studies, and in his secondary school, they used to praise Ebube and ask, where he did his primary school because he had a good basic foundation”
In his remarks, Mr Willy Martin’s Chikwendu Anoliefo, Chairman, of the Parents Teachers Association of the school, said, the immeasurable support of parents has helped the school in achieving this milestone over the years, in addition to our progressive outlook. He said, “We can beat our chest and say the next academic session will be better”.
In her goodwill message at the event, the proprietress of Bright Benny School, Mrs Grace Ndukwe thanked the staff and teachers for their commitment and dedication, adding that the school is synonymous with excellence.
Her words, “My great love for children and God’s benevolence brought about the establishment of Bright Benny School. The overwhelming success recorded consistently over the years by our pupils in the national common entrance examination, which gave them admission to many reputable private and mission schools are eloquent testimonies of our emphasis on academic excellence.
Bright Benny School is very proud of a team of hard-working, well-dedicated, and highly skilled educators and other staff members whose desires are to provide children with an all-embracing basic education and mold them into some of the best human resources for our nation shortly.

To our outgoing primary six pupils and nursery two pupils, I say congratulations. We taught you, we praised you, we counseled you, we queried you and, we punished you to modify you, to make you upright to fit into an egalitarian society. Be informed that we did all those things to you not because we hate you, but because we love you and therefore guiding you right”.
