Our Academic Philosophy

We believe that strong academics are built on four pillars: mastery of foundational skills, creativity, critical thinking, and character development. Our classrooms are dynamic, engaging and learner-centered, allowing students to explore, question, collaborate and take ownership of their learning. Through a balanced combination of structured instruction, inquiry-based learning, and hands-on activities, we prepare students not only for exams but for real-world problem solving and lifelong success.

Preparatory School (Years 1–6)

A balanced and stimulating curriculum focused on core subjects English, Mathematics, Science supported by specialist lessons in ICT, Art, Music, Kiswahili and Physical Education. With small classes and personalised attention, learners build strong academic and social skills.

Lower Secondary (Years 7–9)

A transition phase where learners deepen subject knowledge, build independent learning habits, and develop critical thinking. This stage prepares students for the rigour of the IGCSE programme while nurturing leadership and character.

IGCSE (Years 10–11)

Students select subjects based on their interests and strengths. The two-year Cambridge IGCSE programme builds analytical skills, examination readiness, and academic discipline, forming a strong foundation for A-Level studies.

A-Levels (Years 12–13)

A focused and specialised academic stage where learners choose subjects aligned with career aspirations. A-Levels develop advanced research skills, independent study habits and intellectual maturity, preparing students for entrance into top local and international universities.
