Every parent wants the best for their child. But with so many schools making similar promises, how do you truly know which one is right?

At Charterhouse Lagos, we believe that asking the right questions matters. It’s not about slogans or photos — it’s about values, leadership, systems, and substance. Here are three questions we think every parent should ask when choosing a school — and the real answers we offer.

1. How does the school ensure strong safeguarding and pastoral care?

A child who feels safe, supported, and valued is more likely to thrive — academically, emotionally, and socially. That’s why safeguarding is never an afterthought at Charterhouse Lagos.

Every adult on our campus — from teachers to support staff — is trained in safeguarding protocols. We go beyond compliance to create a culture of care, where children are known as individuals and supported through both structured pastoral systems and everyday relationships.

We follow both Nigerian child protection guidance and international best practice, giving families peace of mind that their children are in safe, caring hands.

2. What role do parents play in the school community?

At Charterhouse Lagos, parents are true partners. We believe in open communication, regular engagement, and shared purpose.

We host curriculum evenings, parent workshops, welcome events, and feedback sessions. We listen, adapt, and grow together — because a school is strongest when parents feel respected, included, and informed.

From the moment your child starts, we make sure you’re part of the journey.

3. What kind of student does the school hope to develop?

A good school focuses on grades. A great school shapes individuals.

At Charterhouse Lagos, our goal is not just to prepare students for exams — but to prepare them for life. We want them to be curious, confident, and compassionate. Our students are taught to think critically, lead with integrity, and contribute meaningfully to society.

We are a values-led school, guided by Excellence, Respect, Integrity, Courtesy, Service, and Wellbeing. These aren’t just words — they inform every aspect of our culture.

From the early years through to IGCSE in Year 10 and A Level in Year 12, we are building a journey that leads to outstanding outcomes — not only in academics, but in character and purpose.

A Charterhouse School — in Nigeria

As part of the Charterhouse family of schools, we draw on centuries of educational excellence. But this is no replica. Charterhouse Lagos is proudly Nigerian — locally rooted, globally connected, and purpose-built from the ground up.

Our facilities are open, completed, and ready — from libraries and science labs to our swimming pool, football pitch, and boarding house. We invite families to come and see what world-class education looks like — here, in the heart of Lagos.

See It For Yourself

We understand how big this decision is. That’s why we encourage families to visit, ask questions, and get real answers.

Whether you’re considering Primary, Secondary, Boarding, or looking ahead to IGCSE and A Level entry in 2026, our doors are open.
