about company
The Life of Every Child is Illuminated by Knowledge.
IGOS was established by Prof. Ahmed Ali Ahmed in 2002, in Nairobi, Kenya. He is a leading educationist who believes in knowledge being powered by its routine application which in turn evolves into becoming wisdom.
As a visionary, he has created an extraordinarily diverse and wonderfully creative community that provides an inspiring environment within which young people live and learn together. As a dynamic and forward-thinking school. We strive to develop resilient individuals who not only think creatively but also act ethically and with responsibility. We encourage our students to express themselves with confidence, to embody the value of speaking respectfully to others, but also in a way that is true to themselves and their beliefs…

Students take ownership of their school and have a vested interest in creating an environment that encourages responsibility, mutual trust, and personal growth.

Our students demonstrate global competitiveness, creative thinking, and innovation through effective reasoning, communication, and advocacy for themselves and their community.
