This study identified, mapped and modelled the existing secondary schools and its educational facilities in Ibadan South West, Oyo State, Nigeria. The study utilized primary data such as the locational (coordinates) and attributes information of the registered Schools and questionnaire administration on the randomly selected administrators and class representatives of the registered schools in the study area. A total of 92 schools and 236 (92 administrators and 144 students) form the respondents for the study. Data were analysed using percentages, nearest neighbour analysis and geographical modelling techniques. The results showed a dispersed pattern of distribution (z = 4.84 and p = 0.001) of the schools with a disproportionately higher frequency in wards 9, 11 and 12 (21–32 schools) than in wards 8 and 10 (10 and 4 schools, respectively). The model revealed that all the schools are proximally located to major roads and settlements except for a private school in ward 12 that is connected by footpaths and more than 500 m away from the main road. Therefore, the location of the secondary schools conforms with UNESCO standard that stipulates secondary schools should be located within 2000 m walking distance from major settlements and 500 m away from the primary and secondary roads.
