Ambition | Respect | Celebration
Story Academy was born from a dream shared by Wumi and her late husband, Leke—a man of vision, integrity, and deep commitment to family.
Their journey began with a desire to build a future where children with special needs, like their son Samuel, could be truly supported.
Leke’s encouragement and belief in inclusive education helped lay the foundation for what would become a lasting legacy: a school grounded in purpose, empathy, and opportunity for all.
“Story Academy is part of Leke’s lasting legacy—a vision born in love, carried forward with purpose.”
Since opening, Story Academy has transformed the lives of children and families across Lagos. Through our student-first model, we’ve built a compassionate and effective framework that delivers both academic and emotional support.
Every milestone reached is a celebration — not just for our students, but for the future we are building together.
