About this school — Caleb International College Magodo
Caleb International College Magodo is the Mainland companion to the Caleb Lekki flagship, established in the mid-1990s to serve the Magodo/Berger/Ikeja GRA professional family catchment. The two campuses share curriculum, calendar, and academic policies but the fee bases differ — Magodo is priced roughly 25-30% below the Lekki campus reflecting the Mainland cost of operation. The school runs the same hybrid Nigerian-Cambridge curriculum as the Lekki campus (Nigerian curriculum with WAEC certification through SS3, plus optional Cambridge IGCSE from SS1 for internationally-directed pupils). Day-only. Christian ethos is openly signalled — the school is part of Bishop Ayodeji Oladele's network which includes Caleb University in Imota, and the guaranteed onward pathway to Caleb University remains one of the group's core sales. WAEC results are consistently 90%+ credit-pass in core subjects. The Magodo Phase 1/2 catchment is the primary source of enrolment, with feeder buses running from Berger, Ikeja GRA, and Ojota.
