BOARDING

At The Science School, we provide a home at school for all students in Nigeria and beyond. Our focus is to encourage students to be independent and self-reliant. The boarding school caters to over ninety students with well-trained house masters and mistress. It provides opportunities for scholars to learn how to make food for themselves, do their laundry, as well as take care of themselves.

We have four boarding houses, each house with a maximum of thirty pupils. Two houses are allocated to the girls and the other two to the boys.

Albert Einstein- Boys

Isaac Newton- Boys

Clara Barton- Girls

Elizabeth Arden- Girls

Our boarding houses are named after the world’s famous scientist and inventors.
