About Enko Education
Enko Education is a fast-growing network of African international schools, preparing learners across Africa for admission to the world’s best universities. To that end, Enko Education develops an innovative education model relying on an internationally recognized curriculum, the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP).
By adopting an asset-light strategy and relying on extensively trained local teachers, Enko Education is able to operate with school fees which are on average a quarter of those charged by other IBDP schools in Africa.
The group opened its first school in September 2013 and now comprises fifteen schools in 9 countries (Senegal, Cameroon, Mozambique, Côte d’Ivoire, Mali, Burkina Faso, Botswana, Zambia and South Africa). Enko Education plans for a strong growth with an objective of 40 schools and 8000 students in the next 5 years.
