Every stage begins with one conversation.
From a toddler's first day to a certified trade — here's exactly what admission into Avicenna looks like, what you'll need, and how to begin.
Where does your child begin?
We admit into every stage below — a child can also join partway through, not only at the very first stage.
| Stage | Level | What it looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Early Years | Toddler | Our earliest stage — gentle care, routine, socialisation and first steps in learning. |
| Early Years | Nursery | Play-based learning building early literacy, numeracy and social skills. |
| Early Years | Reception | Structured, guided preparation for formal schooling. |
| Early Years | Transition | The bridge between pre-school and Primary 1, consolidating foundational skills. |
| Primary | Year 1–5 | A full U.K.-based primary curriculum integrated with Islamic and Nigerian studies. |
| Junior Secondary | JSS1–JSS3 | Secondary education combining U.K. curriculum standards with Islamic and Nigerian content towards the Basic Education Certificate Examination - BECE. |
| Senior Secondary | STC & Trades | Dual-outcome track: SSCE/NECO-eligible result alongside a NABTEB technical certificate. |
What you'll need, and how it works.

Kept deliberately affordable.
We don't publish a flat fee schedule online — every family's stage and circumstances differ, and we'd rather talk it through directly than have a number turn you away before we've even met.
Common questions from parents.
Can my child join mid-year, not just at term start?
Yes — we admit across the year where space allows, subject to an assessment appropriate to your child's stage. Contact us to check current availability.
Is the Technical College only for students who join at Senior Secondary?
Most students progress into it naturally from our own JSS3, but external students entering directly at Senior Secondary are also welcome, subject to assessment.
Do you offer transport or is it a boarding school?
Avicenna is a day school. Please contact the office directly to discuss transport arrangements for your specific location.
What if I have more than one child to enrol?
Let us know at enquiry stage — we're happy to discuss sibling arrangements as part of your family's fee conversation.
How is progress tracked once my child is enrolled?
Every family gets access to our Parent Portal — real-time attendance, termly report cards, and (from Senior Secondary) online CBT results, all in one login.
