Edgewood College is a co-educational Christian independent school located in Lagos, Nigeria. The school was founded with the intention of providing a stringent Christian education to local students and offers provision for both day and boarding pupils. Students at the school ultimately work towards the British-style A-level examination, having completed their iGCSE examinations, with the overall curriculum at the school being a combination of the British and Nigerian national curriculums, with an extensive range of subjects offered by the school. The curriculum is supported by a wide range of modern teaching and recreational facilities, including numerous modern classrooms. Edgewood College takes particular pride in the frequency with which its students are able to attend British universities. Traditional Christian teachings play a huge part in the day-to-day running of the school, with staff working hard to realise the school’s vision of producing well-developed and independent young people.
