Our Mission

To provide a safe, supportive, and stimulating learning environment where every child can achieve academic excellence, develop strong moral values, and grow into a confident, responsible citizen.

Our Vision

To be a leading nursery and primary school in Enugu State, recognized for innovative teaching, community impact, and producing lifelong learners with global perspectives.

School History

Costina Nursery and Primary School was founded to provide quality early childhood and primary education in a safe, nurturing environment. Over the years, the school has maintained high academic standards and a strong commitment to moral values, helping children develop intellectually, socially, and emotionally.

In August 2021, due to the impact of the Nnamdi Kanu–led Monday sit-at-home directive in Enugu State, the school adapted by introducing correspondence learning. This adjustment allowed pupils to continue engaging with the full curriculum remotely, ensuring that no learning time was lost despite the restrictions.

Costina remains dedicated to blending innovation with tradition, fostering resilient, well-rounded learners prepared for the challenges of the future.

Our Story

At Costina Nursery and Primary School, we’ve always believed that nothing should stand in the way of a child’s learning. In August 2021, when the Nnamdi Kanu–led Monday sit-at-home began in Enugu State, we quickly adapted by introducing correspondence learning.

This meant our pupils could keep learning from home while still following the full curriculum. It was our way of turning challenges into opportunities — and making sure our children kept growing, no matter what.
