My daughter joined Imperial Gate School for yrs 5 and 6. I knew it was a good school, but I found out so much more in her 2 years. I was amazed at how everyone from the security men, the receptionists, the teachers, and the administrators all the way to the proprietress treated the kids as if they were their own. Yes, the school is quite efficient and well organized. But the atmosphere was also filled with love, and it seemed like one giant family. The way the kids always greeted parents when they passed in the corridors, the way they were always laughing amongst themselves, the way both boys and girls played on the same football teams seamlessly was really a joy to watch.
My daughter never came home with a story of gossip between students, backbiting, bullying...... I heard nothing of such. It seemed a peaceful place, and I am so proud that we still have havens like this in our country. I wish I had more children to send to Imperial Gate, but sadly, my time seems up. If that changes.....well, I'll be back!
Thank you, Miss Pat, Miss Okpalangwu, Mr Onabanjo, Mr Oni, Mrs Oguamanam, Mr Ladi, Miss Okpalangwu, Miss Frances, Mrs Osigwe and of course Mrs Ogaraku Thank You IGS
Our son joined Imperial Gate School in yr 4, and it surely was his best last year in primary learning in terms of education, morals, and discipline. We are grateful to have been part of this beautiful school family as parents and couldn't have wished for more.
The School comes highly recommended as we had a rich history also with late Mrs Olubunmi when she was at Corona ikoyi, so finding out she was a founder of IGS when our son needed to move schools was only an icing on the cake informing our decision.
Lastly, the new school infrastructure is a beautiful space and place every parent would be proud of. We as parents and Afolabi (outgoing Assembly prefect) wish to thank the Head of school/Teachers and all non-academic staff of this institution of learning and wish them all the best in life. God bless you all.
A Beautiful Small World indeed!
We needed to transfer our daughter from her former school after observing a drop in the school’s quality. It was
the same school her two older siblings had attended and it became an emotional decision for us to make. However,
the resignation of a key management staff of the school by end of the previous academic session made the need to
find her a new school, a top quality one, an important and imperative decision.
Considering that we’ve had no prior dealing or interface with Imperial Gate School, we were cautious in the
early stages; but after 3 academic sessions and the conspicuous changes in our daughter’s academic and
non-academic performances, we can look back and applaud our decision to enrol her at IGS.
“Our beautiful small world” is not just the motto of the school, it’s a reflection of the efforts put into
improving the children. The school builds up the confidence levels of the kids, and gives them a platform to
express and develop their innate talents.
My daughter, Modesire, lives, breathes and reflects the values of IGS, of course, coupled with the culture we
have put in place at home. The school takes discipline seriously and usually gives timely feedback on any
anomaly noticed with each child. The one-on-one session with the class teacher and each child’s parents at
periodic intervals is a great initiative as it helps us as parents to know what changes are taking place in our
children and our responsibilities to address them timely and decisively.
The management staff of the school have a great relationship with the teachers and non-teaching staff, and this
helps to make them pass across expectations and vision in a cordial manner.
IGS is indeed, a beautiful small world.
IGS has provided the atmosphere for my kids to thrive and develop. I particularly like
the fact that learning covers both academic and behavioral skills development. The kids are always excited to go
to school.
The teachers are very interactive and very helpful.
Overall, I would recommend IGS as a good place for kids to attend school.
We have no regret for choosing Imperial Gate School as our very own school. We love the
balanced structure and core values at IGS, and our children say that from time to time. For me, it's the
individualised parent- teacher-pupil collaboration that brings the best out of each child.
Imperial Gate School teachers are a rare breed, passionate, God fearing, loving, spectacular.......
IGS is the right choice for that parent who is holistically intentional about their child/children's
education.
Cheers.
I have been a parent in Imperial Gate School for close to ten years. The school has a
strong, passionate and creative team that devotes time and effort to having a significant impact on pupil's
progress.
IGS practices strong, consistent and committed culture of ‘Values,’ which resonates the school’s ethos— both
staff and students— from Reception to Year 6.
My children enjoy being at school and are extremely happy being in the caring, supportive, respectful and safe
environment of IGS.
With the love and attention the children receive, they are able to flourish and thrive. My children are very
happy and proud of their school.
I admire the culture of kindness and responsiveness and cannot imagine not being part of this beautiful small
world of IGS.
My journey with Imperial Gate school started in 2014 and my time there has been very
memorable! As a first time mum I wanted a school that would provide an enabling environment for my child to grow
and develop and after almost 9 years I can say that IGS has provided this and so much more.
From the moment you arrive at the school premises, you are met by the very friendly and warm staff. The academic
staff are very patient and willing to support each child to attain great potential. The school engages parents
before taking critical decisions hence giving us a good feel that we are considered as stakeholders.
Finally, the results churned out each year by the Year 6 graduating sets is a clear indication of the highly
competitive educational standards maintained by the school. Most of them gain entrance into very good secondary
schools giving me the assurance that my children are at the right citadel of learning that will propel them to
greatness!
My experience with Imperial Gate School has simply been phenomenal. Although I had
always wanted my kids to attend IGS, we were only able to enrol our daughter in 2018 when she was going to
Nursery 2 and we have had no regrets. I remember meeting a member of the parent council at our new parent
orientation and she mentioned how much the children bond with their teachers and love them so much.
A parent Mrs Hart, also mentioned the same to me during one of our conversations about the school. I can attest
that that has been our experience. Every teacher that has taught my kids has become an additional parent and
they have continued to support the children even beyond that school year. The support system in Imperial Gate
School is well rounded including management, teaching and non-teaching staff.
Imperial Gate School is really a home away from home. Our kids are being nurtured and are flourishing and
blossoming to our delight. I am grateful for the opportunity to have our kids loved and tutored by the best
hands there is and we are excited about all that is in store for them and all the wonderful kids in our
beautiful small world.
Imperial Gate School is a beautiful school that has a good balance of academic
excellence and social skills in stock for kids. I like the reward to excellence which the kids look forward to
and the proactive communication which I really enjoy.
I have recommended Imperial Gate School to a number of parents and will do the same, over and over.
IGS has been a centre of excellence that I recommend to any parent. The rigourous
academic program that still has sufficient flexibility to accommodate the individual needs of our children has
been instrumental in getting the best out of them.
We chose Imperial Gate School with an expectation of giving our children the best
possible education as well as exposure to extra curriculum activities. The learning experiences are beyond our
expectations.
The teacher-student relationship is exemplary as they are very intentional on a one on one basis interaction.
This has been aided by the small population in the classrooms. We appreciate the way the school involves us
'parents' by giving constant feedback on the students' progress and taking in and addressing our concerns to our
satisfaction.
We appreciate how IGS has created a safe environment for our children to grow physically, emotionally and
intellectually equipping them for future success.
Keep up the good work, God bless.
Imperial Gate School is basically family to us having had three of our children pass
through the school, starting from Playgroup up to Year 6 when they graduated. If there was an I.G.S secondary
school, I have no doubt that they would have continued schooling here, because over the years IGS has become a
beautiful small world to all the children that passed through this great citadel of learning.
Our first son who is presently in SS 3 is also a prefect in another school, while our last child in IGS is
currently in Year 2 and is doing amazingly well. He's always eager to go to school and that indeed tells a lot
about how good the school is. He is always quick to say that he has the best teachers and a conducive learning
environment that makes him look forward to school everyday.
