A BRIEF HISTORY OF RUSSELL INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

Russell International School was established in 2010 by Mrs. Antoniette Ehizogie Nwanoneze a certified paediatric nurse and a montessori directress. She studied in Middlesex University UK, and worked in Kings College hospital as a paediatric nurse for over a decade.

It started in a private property in Lekki Phase 1 and moved into its present purpose built site.

Russell International School maintains the rich tradition of promoting quality childcare services and teacher-training opportunities anchored by the firm belief that the world’s future is very much dependent on our young children, we at Russell International School Lekki have a commitment to the care and growth of each child as a whole building a child’s world where learning begins.

Russell International School runs a primary and secondary school. Our primary school section is divided into three distinct age groups; 0-3 years (Playgroup), 3-5 years (Nursery), 6-11 years (Primary).  

Each class group has their own area within the school and follow routines and activities appropriate for their age group. The children are cared for in an environment which mirrors their home experience and provides the comfort, stimulation and safety appropriate for their needs.
