The Schoenstatt Fathers are deeply committed to fostering holistic education rooted in Schoenstatt’s pedagogy, which emphasizes the formation of the head, heart, and hand. This approach integrates intellectual growth, emotional and spiritual development, and practical skills, ensuring a well-rounded education that equips students for life. Through our two schools in Nigeria—Sancta Maria College, Lagos, and St. Francis College, Ugbogui, Benin City; we strive to mold students into responsible, spiritually grounded individuals who are prepared to lead and serve.

Inspired by the Covenant of Love with Mary, we guide young minds to discover their personal ideals and cultivate a profound sense of mission and purpose. Our educational framework ensures that students are not only academically competent (head) but also morally upright (heart) and practically skilled to address real-world challenges (hand).

At the heart of our schools is a commitment to personal accompaniment, recognizing that every student is unique and requires individualized attention to thrive. By blending rigorous academics, moral instruction, and co-curricular activities, we prepare students to become agents of transformation in society. Rooted in the Schoenstatt ideal of creating a “new person in a new community,” we aim to inspire future leaders who embody integrity, service, and a deep commitment to faith.

Our mission extends beyond the students to their families, fostering a strategic partnership in the educational process. By nurturing a vibrant culture of faith and mutual support, our schools become sanctuaries where academic success and spiritual growth flourish side by side. In doing so, we contribute to the intellectual, moral, and spiritual renewal of individuals and society at large.
