School History

The history of this great institution was planted by Late Major F.L. Adewumi, a.k.a Baba Imola.
He was a man best owed with good foresight and great vision and love for education, hence his
desire to contribute positively to the fielding education industry.

The School was founded on 12th July, 1969, by Late Major F.L. Adewunmi (Rtd). The school
was approved by the Lagos State Government in January, 1970 when the school developed to
primary section, another three bed-room bungalow was acquired at 52 Palm-Avenue, Mushin.
However, due to expansion and increase in population of the pupils, we thought of a permanent
site, hence this building was started and we moved into eight classroom in 1972.

Imola Comprehensive College was founded on the 21st October, 1991 as co-education post primary
institutionAt inception,the foundation students of the college were sixteen[16] while pioneering
staff strength was nine[9] and five[5] non-teaching staff. The college started with a one storey
building called 'SOMFPAIF' which was then used as classrooms, staffrooms, Principal's office
and Girls Hostel.The school now has a “U” shaped structure. Thank God for the physical and
structural developments.

The schools are co-educational institutions, government approved for all examination with
decent, conducive and serene environment for learning, operating Day and Boarding school.
