About
Inspiring Lifelong Learning and Success
Ayere Education Centre was established in 2017 in Benin City, Edo State. Nigeria.
At inception, it was called the Divine Praise Education Centre. However, in 2020, the Proprietor, Mr Kenn Ayere changed the name to Ayere Education Centre, to immortalize the name of his father, Late Matthew Imerion Ayere, who was the first University Graduate from Ewatto Kingdom and an avid lover of education.
Ayere Education Centre was designed to focus on the all-around growth and development of learners.
Ayere Education Centre places huge emphasis on teaching its learners artisanal skills and exposing them to science and computer literacy, which are in high demand in today’s world.
Sports development and music skills are key areas of focus as we believe in the physical and mental development of our learners.
Ayere Education Centre is an institution that is committed to discovering, nurturing and harnessing the potentials of learners, towards developing their abilities and strengths, to make them relevant to themselves, and help them to surmount the challenges of today’s world.
IN GOD WE TRUST.
