Lagos State Junior Model College Badore is a state owned secondary school located in Badore village, Eti-Osa Local government area of Lagos State.[1][2]

History[edit]

Before 2003, junior and senior secondary schools in Lagos State were a single administrative control. The government through the Lagos State Ministry of Education mandated all secondary schools in the state to be partitioned into junior (JSS1-3) and senior (SS1-3). This was what led to the establishment of Lagos State Junior Model College Badore from Lagos State Model College Badore (founded on 19 February 1988) on January 6, 2003. The emergence of the newly created school led to the appointment of Mrs. Sidikat Titilayo Smith as the first principal of the school.
