Empowering Christian Education Leaders and Schools Across Africa
Partnering with educators to build Christ-centred learning communities, equip leaders, and grow schools rooted in biblical truth.
Welcome Message By the ACSI Africa Director
The questions of how we are going to prepare the next generation, through what model of schooling, in what values, and to what end have been central to the mission of ACSI Africa over the past three decades. Together with ACSI Africa’s Leadership Team, we have been actively working alongside the church, family and schools in 33 African nations through five geographic regions (Central Africa, Francophone West Africa and Anglophone West Africa, East Africa and Southern Africa) to provide context relevant answers to these questions.
We strive to see quality Christian schooling become available and accessible to God’s children in every African nation by the year 2050. This end is pursued operationally through close collaboration with the African church, school and family to strengthen Christian schools and equip Christian educators as they prepare the next generation through biblical values as good citizens of heaven and earth.
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”- Proverbs 22:6
My prayer is that as a continent, we unite our actions and invest our best in preparing the next generation in Christ for good work and holistic transformation in our nations. (Ephesians 2:10)
Stronger Together,

Who We Are
ACSI Africa is one of eight global divisions of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) – alongside Europe, North America, Latin America, East Asia, South Asia, Asia Pacific and the international division – and serves as ACSI’s regional expression across the African continent. For over three decades, ACSI Africa has contributed to the growing movement of Christian education through collaborative efforts that advance biblically rooted, contextually relevant practices.
‍
The Africa Leadership Team, coordinated by the Africa Divisional Director, implements ACSI’s strategic priorities by strengthening Christian schools and equipping educators, church leaders, and national associations to lead transformational, biblically enlightened education across Africa. ACSI Africa currently serves 33 countries across five geographic regions: Central Africa, East Africa, Southern Africa, Francophone West Africa, and Anglophone West Africa.
In partnership with the church, schools, families, and governments, ACSI Africa envisions
- Schools that contribute to the public good through effective teaching and learning, while being biblically sound, academically rigorous, socially engaged, and culturally relevant; and
- Educators who embody a biblical worldview, model transformational teaching and discipline, and pursue continuous personal and professional growth.

These stories remind us that even in the most remote corners, hope takes root and grows. Dive into the journeys of individuals and communities whose lives have been changed, one act of faith at a time.
