The US has already provided surveillance assistance, and Mr Cameron's offer of help would include an intelligence team in Abuja to help analyse information about the girls' location.
The proposed military team embedded within the army HQ would act as a liaison between the intelligence cell and Nigerian officers, the MoD said.
At Prime Minister's Questions Mr Cameron said he would support the efforts of his predecessor Gordon Brown, the UN's special envoy for education, in setting up a fund to protect schools.
He insisted the Nigerian authorities were making efforts to tackle Boko Haram as Labour MP Tom Clarke said the Abuja government 'has not lifted a finger to protect its own citizens in the north'.
Mr Cameron told him: 'They do face a very vicious terrorist organisation in terms of Boko Haram, they are investing in and training their armed forces and counter-terrorism abilities.
'We have worked with them on that and we are willing to do more work with them on that, particularly if we can make sure that proper processes are in place for dealing with human rights areas.
'But we should help across a broad range of areas, not just counter-terrorism, surveillance and helping them find these people, but also working with the global fund promoted by the former prime minister ... in terms of protecting more schools.'
