International School Lagos

International School Lagos (ISL) was established in 1981. The school is a secondary school located in the University of Lagos (Unilag) in Nigeria.[1] There was already a primary school in Unilag and there was a need for a secondary school for the children of lecturers and other staff. The establishment of the International School in 1981 and its movement to a permanent site in October 1983 was part of the high points of the University of Lagos.

By virtue of being a University Secondary School, it can draw upon teaching talent that is typically not available to other secondary schools.[2]

It has a rivalry with King's College and Queen's College. ISL alumni have gone on to attend universities around the world, particularly in Nigeria, Britain and the United States. The Past Principals of the school include Mrs. Adora E. Ojo (2011 - 2017), Dr. S.A. Oladipo (2009 - 2011), Mr. Nuhu Hassan (1997 - 2009). The current Principal is Dr. Brai Malik who assumed duties September 2017

The school is highly developed in sports and has unlimited access to the University of Lagos Sports Centre. Students are able to engage in any sporting activity of their choice. However, it is worthy to note that the school has won so many national and state laurels particularly in Basketball since its establishment.

Admissions

Entrance into International School Lagos is fiercely competitive and applicants have to attend a first round of tests, following which only successful applicants are invited to a second and final stage assessment which includes a tour of the school.
