The School was opened with the objective of offering rudimentary education to the children who would obviously continue studying in the United Kingdom. As a result, the pioneering pupils were mostly children of expatriates. However, the doors of admission were thrown open to all irrespective of nationality, religion or background. The initial curriculum includes Scripture, Arithmetic, English, Writing, History, Geography, French, Handcraft, Needlework, Embroidery, Simple Weaving, Puppet Making, Singing and Dancing. Over the years, as more and more children with Nigerian Parentage were enrolled and who continued their education in colleges and universities in Nigeria, the curriculum of the school changed to Nigerian curriculum to accommodate these children and their interest but extend and enhance their learning experience by including element of the British Curriculum and offering a wider international perspective to their learning.
