Brief History

Wilcox School is a mission-rooted school in Aba, Abia State, with origins traced to early Christian education work in the Ogbor Hill axis. Historical accounts link the school’s beginnings to the Qua Iboe Church (now the United Evangelical Church), which established the institution initially as a primary school around 1927, before later growth into secondary-level education under the Wilcox Memorial identity.

The school is named in honour of Rev. A. V. Wilcox, referenced in reports as a key early missionary-evangelist associated with the church’s work in the region.

Success Story So Far

Over the years, Wilcox School has grown from a modest learning centre into a full, well-structured academic community that trains learners across all levels—from Crèche and Nursery, through Primary, up to Secondary (Year 7–Year 12). This expansion has been driven by a clear vision: to provide consistent, high-quality education under one umbrella, where every child is guided carefully from early development to strong academic maturity.

A major strength of the school is its team of expert teachers who combine subject mastery with practical classroom experience and strong mentoring. Through a disciplined learning culture, modern teaching approaches, continuous assessment, and targeted revision programs, students are supported to build confidence, critical thinking, and excellent study habits.

The results have been evident in our performance in external examinations. Our students continue to record encouraging outcomes in WAEC and JAMB, reflecting the effectiveness of our teaching standards, academic monitoring, and student support systems. Beyond examinations, Wilcox Schools remains committed to shaping well-rounded learners with good character, leadership skills, and readiness for higher education and future careers.

As we move forward, we remain focused on excellence, growth, and raising a new generation of outstanding achievers.
