About Great Panaf

The Great Panaf School is dedicated to nurturing happy, confident, and disciplined children prepared for a fast-changing world. Great PANAF Schools is the brain child of Mrs. Patricia Jummai Danmaida. Having been in Education all her life, she nursed the idea of owning a school someday. Armed with this desire, she set out to gather all the knowledge she could find by attending various schools and gaining grade II teachers certificate, NCE, E.Ed. and M.Ed qualifications. She taught in many institutions at Primary, Secondary and Tertiary levels.Let’s work together to make this a fantastic year!

  • Quality education from early years to secondary
  • Experienced and caring teaching staff
  • Modern classrooms and learning resources
  • Holistic development — academics, sports & character
