Simba International School is an independent organisation founded in 1981 in response to parents' requests for a new and innovative approach to children of all races, colour and creed โ€” an emphasis that remains today.

The school now serves more than 500 students from over 18 nationalities, with a main campus in Ndola and a new campus in Kitwe.

Our vision is to build a high performing, accountable, student-centred international school with a strong and reputable education brand โ€” an inspiring environment, academic excellence and global citizens.

Simba has nurtured high flyers around the world who remain part of our active alumni community, from Olympic swimmers to doctors, engineers and entrepreneurs.
