Our Story

Raised out of a mission,
built for the classroom.

IVIS didn't begin as a school — it began as a conviction. Here's how understanding the times became a curriculum.

Where We Come From

From a mission call to a school gate in Ojoo.

Issachar Vision International Schools is an institution of The Men of Issachar Vision Inc. (MIV), a Christian organisation whose calling is awakening and missions — helping the Church, and the community around it, understand the times and know what to do. [Sebastian: insert verified founding year and founder's name here once confirmed with the school.]

That same charge, drawn from 1 Chronicles 12:32, is where our school's name and motto come from. Education became a natural extension of the mission's love for its host community in Ojoo: alongside the Issachar Medical Center, the founders established IVIS to raise children who are both academically excellent and spiritually grounded — Godly and Goodly, in the words of the school's own charge.

Today, IVIS carries that same DNA forward — passionate, qualified educators, a School Management platform that keeps every parent in the loop, and a culture where understanding, applied consistently, really does give an edge.

Every Morning

Assembly is where the mission meets the day.

Before timetables begin, IVIS gathers — a short, unhurried moment of devotion, values and shared purpose that sets the tone for everything that follows. It's a small ritual, but it's the clearest picture of who we are: a school that teaches character before it teaches content.

Our Mission

To raise Godly and Goodly children

We exist to deliver academic excellence tailored to how each child learns, while nurturing sound character and genuine faith — so every graduate leaves IVIS able to understand their times and know what to do with them.

Our Vision

A generation that leads with understanding

We see a community of IVIS graduates — vibrant, skillful and principled — shaping classrooms, boardrooms and congregations across Nigeria and beyond, carrying the same discernment they were raised on at Onile-Aro.
