Wellington College International and Rendeavour, Africa’s new city builder, have partnered to open a co-educational day and boarding school for 1,500 pupils aged 2-18 in Alaro City, Nigeria.
Opening in September 2027, Wellington College International School Lagos will offer unparalleled academic excellence, state-of-the-art facilities, and a holistic approach to education, transforming the educational landscape in West Africa.
Wellington College International Lagos will share the values, ethos, enduring quality, and ambition of Wellington College, the pioneering British coeducational school, combined with regional and Nigerian educational strengths and traditions.
Rendeavour’s Alaro City campus, developed in partnership with its Nigerian partners and designed by award-winning British architectural design practice MICA Architects, will follow the rigorous English National Curriculum, culminating in the challenging A-level programme, as well as offering coaching and teaching excellence in sports, music, and the arts.
Wellington College is a thought leader in education, and the school will look to lead in areas of AI and entrepreneurship.
Rendeavour is Africa’s largest new city developer. Backed by American, Norwegian, New Zealand, and British investors, Rendeavour’s cities are among the largest construction projects in Africa and serve as hubs for businesses, homes, education, and recreation within infrastructure-ready economic zones.
