You’ll agree that coming up with a list of the best secondary schools in Africa, from different countries across the entire continent is almost an impossible task. For one thing, the countries follow different guidelines and curriculum. Beyond that, the major regional assessments are equally completely different.<\/p>\n
How then did we arrive at the list we have here? Well, attention was given to schools that have historical prominence at a national and regional level during compilation. For this reason, most schools named on the list are quite old. You will also find schools that are very good at a national level, yet lacked regional presence here. Generally, we regard what we have here as the top 100 best secondary schools in Africa.<\/p>\n

Starehe Boys’ Centre Kenya<\/p>\n As stated earlier, in ranking the\u00a0list of secondary schools in Africa as provided by The African Economist, there is always going to be some degree of difficulty because different countries follow completely different school curriculum and are involved in entirely different local and regional assessment.<\/p>\n Regional assessments of schools were taken into consideration however, it is important to note that in various African countries, not all schools partake in regional assessment.<\/p>\n The historical Schools that have had an established presence especially at the national and regional levels were considered more. This explains the reason there are quite a good number of older schools; some of which were established before the corresponding country had independence.<\/p>\n Other criteria that were considered include; Wining prestigious scholarships and fellowships, Individual school performance which\u00a0took consistency into consideration to eliminate the quick rise and quick fall cases.<\/p>\n100 Top Secondary Schools in Africa<\/strong><\/h2>\n
