The institution is expected to take off in September.

The institution, one of the United Kingdom’s leading independent schools, renowned for its tradition of academic excellence, is expected to welcome its first A-Level students in six months and fully open its senior school for girls and boys from the age of 11+ in September 2026, is already attracting aspiring students from across Nigeria and West Africa.

A statement from the prestigious institution’s management disclosed that Dr England “brings to Nigeria twenty years of leadership experience in both the United Kingdom and Africa, most recently serving as director general of École Internationale Ruban Vert in Libreville, Gabon.”

Dr England holds degrees in English and French from Warwick and Swansea University and a doctorate in English Literature. His connection to Nigeria runs deep, having previously worked in Lagos and developed a profound appreciation for the country’s culture and people.

His leadership experience includes serving as chairman of the Independent Schools Council of Wales. He is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.

The statement further disclosed that Dr England is delighted about the appointment and eager to build a thriving and dynamic school community in Nigeria.

He said, “I am unbelievably excited about returning to Lagos as Principal of Rugby School Nigeria.
Anybody who knows me understands how much I enjoyed working in Nigeria.

“To return as Principal of such a prestigious school, working on a purpose-built campus with some of the best colleagues in the industry is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

He added, “Before then, I shall spend some time at Rugby School England, absorbing its ‘Whole Person Whole Point’ philosophy and its global approach to teaching and learning.”
Dr England, whose grown-up children reside in London, will be joined in Lagos by his partner Tricia, who works in primary education.

Gareth Parker-Jones, headmaster of Rugby School (UK), also expressed excitement over the September date for the Rugby School Nigeria.

“We have long connections with Nigeria; some fantastic students have studied here. They have really embodied the character and values of Rugby School. So, to offer that to more Nigerian students now in Lagos is something I’m excited about, and I can’t wait for the opening this September.”
