Lagos School Allows Parents Pay Their Children’s School Fees With Plastic Bottles


A Lagos school has made it possible for parents to sleep with their eyes closed after a groundbreaking initiative launched by the school management.

This came to light after Morit International School located in Ajegunle adopted the RecyclesPay Education Project, an initiative of African Clean Up Initiative (ACI), an environmental non-governmental organisation in Lagos.

The school accepts empty plastic bottles from parents and guardians in exchange for payment of their children’s school fees.


Wecyclers, the recycling company attached to the project, comes to collect the plastic bottles after getting a substantial amount of plastic wastes. The amount given to parents is determined after weighing what each of them has brought.

The initiative was adopted to ease the burden of parents finding it hard to pay their wards’ fees.
