Our Schools

Whitesands School

Founded in 2000, Whitesands School was the first major project of IEF, located in Lekki, Lagos. An all-boys secondary school, it introduced to the Nigerian educational landscape a distinctive message of personalised attention and strong family involvement within the context of the integral formation of students.

From its first purpose-built structure, the Junior School block, the Foundation gradually expanded the facilities to include the Senior School block, dining hall, multipurpose covered court, a large chapel, and extensive sporting facilities to meet the needs of a growing student population.

Now over 25 years, Whitesands School has graduated over a thousand students and stands among the most respected secondary schools in Lagos and in the country. Dozens of its alumni have earned distinctions, First Class Honours, and Summa or Magna Cum Laude recognitions from universities, as well as scholarships awarded for academic excellence from both local and foreign universities. Whitesands is especially recognized for its commitment to forming men of integrity, whose achievements across diverse fields continue to reflect the school’s values and academic strength.

Hillrange Secondary School

Hillrange Secondary School, the second major IEF project, is located on a three-hectare site within Centenary City, Enugu State. It opened its doors in 2017 with a purpose-built Junior School block and carried to Enugu the same educational philosophy that has guided IEF’s work since its beginnings. The Foundation has built additional structures, including the Senior School block, the dining hall and kitchen block, together with large sports fields.

Although families were initially cautious about enrolling their children in the early years, Hillrange quickly gained their trust. Within three years, its classrooms were full, and today it is the most sought-after boys’ school in Enugu. The school has demonstrated strong academic performance, with its students winning numerous awards in state and national competitions. Having already graduated three cohorts, Hillrange continues to prepare young men who excel in both Nigerian and international universities

Roseville Secondary School

Roseville Secondary School, IEF’s third major project, extends the same educational ideals to girls and their families. Established in 2018, Roseville began operations in rented premises along Chime Avenue, Enugu, before moving into its purpose-built Phase 1 building on a three-hectare plot within Centenary City. Plans are underway to complete the second and third phhases.

The school has grown rapidly. It has quickly become the most sought-after girls’ secondary school in Enugu, earning recognition through outstanding academic achievements and excellent results in external examinations. Roseville has proven its excellence and commitment to forming well-rounded young women who stand out for both intellect and character.
