The principal of Brookstone School, Dr Bashiru Sadiku and Oreoluwa Awe , top student world wide in English (as a secondary language) and best in Nigeria in 8 subjects, at the British Council Recognition and Outstanding Cambridge Award Ceremony, in Lagos.
Brookstone School, a
leading institution delivering holistic education, has once again proven its
place among Nigeria's top academic institutions, picking up top honours at the
British Council Recognition and Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards (BROCLA),
held at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The standout moment
came from Brookstone School, Port Harcourt, whose student Oreoluwa Awe walked
away with two outstanding distinctions: Top in the World in English as a Second
Language, and Best in Nigeria across eight subjects, in the June 2025 IGCSE examinations.
The dual win cements
Brookstone's place among Nigeria's leading schools and underscores its drive to
produce globally competitive learners.
"Winning these
awards feels amazing," Oreoluwa said. "It shows that all the late
nights and hard work really paid off, but I couldn't have done it without my
teachers, my family, and the support I get at Brookstone. This makes me want to
push myself even more and hopefully inspire other students to believe they can
achieve big things too."
Her father, Engr.
Afolabi Awe, could not hide his pride: "Seeing Oreoluwa achieve this level
of success fills me with immense pride. It's proof that with discipline and
encouragement, our children can truly excel on the global stage."

The school's
principal, Dr. Bashiru Sadiku added: "Oreoluwa's recognition at both
global and national levels reflects the hard work of our students and teachers,
and the supportive environment we foster. We are proud to see our vision of
excellence mirrored in such outstanding results."
BROCLA is organised
annually by the British Council in partnership with Cambridge International
Education, celebrating students with exceptional results in Cambridge
examinations.
With this latest
achievement, Brookstone School reaffirms its place at the forefront of academic
excellence in Nigeria, shaping young minds who do not just meet global
standards, but consistently rise above them.
