The National Examinations Council (NECO) is pleased to announce the establishment of a new examination centre in London, United Kingdom. This initiative is part of NECO's global expansion drive aimed at providing credible assessment opportunities for Nigerians in the diaspora.

The new centre was unveiled during the Education Matters Conference UK 2025, and it is a result of a partnership between NECO and Barnfield Education Ltd. The centre will provide opportunities for Nigerian students and adult learners in the UK who have been unable to complete secondary education or obtain equivalent qualifications.

According to Prof. Dantani Ibrahim Wushishi, NECO's Registrar and Chief Executive, "The initiative aims to provide credible and accessible examination opportunities for Nigerians residing abroad in line with the Federal Government's education policy on inclusivity and global engagement."

The new Senior School Certificate Examination centre is a strategic step toward extending NECO's global footprint. The Council now administers examinations in seven countries, with new centres awaiting accreditation in Egypt and Burkina Faso.

The London centre will empower Nigerians abroad, promote national pride, and strengthen the global recognition of NECO certificates. NECO certificates are already accepted by several UK universities, including Birmingham City University and Leeds Trinity University, as well as institutions in the United States, Canada, India, China, and Russia.

The Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, has commended NECO for the initiative, describing it as a crucial step toward ensuring that "no Nigerian child, at home or abroad, is left behind."

The Director of BEP Education and NECO's UK partner, Dr John Ibanga, said the new centre will serve as an alternative pathway for Nigerian students in the UK who face challenges within the British education system.

The establishment of the new centre has been praised by the Nigerian High Commission in London, with the Head of Political Affairs, Ambassador Eche Abu-Obe, describing it as a "timely and commendable effort" consistent with Nigeria's policy on educational inclusivity and diaspora engagement.
