Written by Why This Program Matters
Many talented students across Africa excel in academics yet lack access to tailored development resources, structured mentorship, or pathways to reach competitive opportunities at higher education and global forums. The African Gifted Academy × Murtala Muhammed Foundation School Program focuses on bridging that gap by creating supportive learning environments that enhance students’ intellectual, creative, and leadership capacities.
Participating in this program can help students become more confident learners, improve academic performance, and gain exposure to networks and opportunities that extend beyond the classroom.
