A Legacy of Islamic Education in Lagos

YusFaith Nursery, Primary & College is a leading Islamic school situated at Isale-Eko, Lagos Island — one of the most historic communities in Lagos, Nigeria. Since our founding, we have been committed to providing a holistic education that combines the Nigerian national curriculum with authentic Islamic values.

Our school operates across two campuses on Ita-Omo Lane, Via Adeniji Adele Road, Lagos Island — the Nursery/Primary campus at No. 32 and the College campus at No. 30a — enabling us to serve students from their earliest years right through to secondary school leaving.

We are a proud member of AMIS (Association of Private Islamic Schools in Nigeria), reflecting our commitment to the highest standards of Islamic education in the country.
