Welcome to Charterhouse Lagos, a truly exceptional new independent school in the heart of Nigeria’s economic capital.
Global in our outlook and local in our focus, we blend the best of contemporary educational thinking with the finest traditions in British independent schooling. Charterhouse Lagos is the first British independent school in Nigeria as well as the largest private sector investment in education in the country.
Opening in September 2024, Charterhouse Lagos aims to set a new standard in education provision in Nigeria and West Africa. With world-class facilities and a focus on excellence, we aim to create students with a passion for learning, for excellence and for leadership.
The school community is self-contained and lies in Ogombo on the Lekki Peninsula, south of mainland Lagos. The secure compound will offer the best educational facilities in Nigeria. 24-hour security ensures that our students and staff can take advantage of the amazing facilities. We expect our older students to board at the school.
Facilities will include fully connected classrooms, science and STEAM labs, music, art, drama and library spaces, an 800-seat professional standard theatre, a 25-metre competition pool, along with a learn-to-swim pool, an NBA standard indoor basketball stadium, outdoor and indoor football pitches, and a beautifully landscaped campus that offers relaxation as well as a connection to nature.
The school will offer an international education for students aged 5 to 18 (Years 1 to 13) using the British
curriculum and leading to the IGCSE and A-level qualifications. These will allow our students to aspire to
the very best universities worldwide. Opening a new school is a huge challenge and adaptability will be key. We aim to create a British-style international school reflecting the heritage and culture of the great UK
independent schools. We are seeking leaders who will bravely tackle challenges and challenge expectations; we want individuals who will set aspirational targets for students and staff and lofty goals for our school.
We hope that you will consider joining us to create an exciting new future in Lekki, Lagos.
The building is in progress and will be completed in 3 phases with the initial facilities for Years 1 to 4 opening in September 2024.
Schrole has been a reliable platform for us to access strong candidates and Schrole staff have been very helpful throughout the recruiting process. I very much look forward to a long working relationship with Schrole.
