About Great Heritage College
Godliness, Knowledge, and Progress since 2002
Our Story
This esteemed center of learning began with Great Delight Private School (GDPS), which opened its doors on October 5th, 1998. Founded by Mrs. H.N. Agu, who was inspired by her faith, the school's initial purpose was to provide a strong academic foundation for children from Creche to Basic 6. The institution started modestly with three buildings, comprising eight rooms: six classrooms, one office, and one restroom facility. Through consistent growth and community acceptance, GDPS flourished and gained recognition as one of the leading primary schools in the local area.
This success spurred an expansion of vision, leading to the establishment of Great Heritage College. Opening its doors on September 16th, 2002, Great Heritage College quickly developed into an outstanding secondary institution, complementing the foundational work of GDPS. After many years of dedicated leadership under Mrs. Agu, both schools were acquired by Mr. Folorunso Kolade (Director) and Mrs. Esther Kolade-Folorunso (Proprietress) on September 9th, 2019.
