St Christopher's International School

St. Christopher’s is grounded in a Christian ethos that is value-based and pupil-centred, aiming to challenge each pupil to attain excellence in a loving and caring environment. Through its Values Based Education (VBE) programme, the school encourages pupils to explore concepts of respect, honesty, and compassion to develop their sense of global citizenship and purpose.

The school follows the British curriculum, offering a broad and balanced programme from Kindergarten through Year 13. Key stages include the Cambridge programme for Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9), followed by IGCSE and BTEC preparations in Key Stage 4 (Years 10–11), and a college-preparatory Sixth Form (Years 12–13) offering A-Level and BTEC routes. The school also provides a scholarship programme for students demonstrating exceptional talent in academics, sports, music, art, or drama.

Pupils consistently achieve strong results in IGCSE, A-Level, and BTEC examinations, with many graduates gaining entry into top universities in the UK, Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, and other countries. The school is non-selective and focuses on preparing pupils to become accomplished, confident, and responsible global citizens.

The school employs a Special Education Needs Coordinator (SENCO) as part of its senior management team to oversee support for pupils. The institution maintains a dedicated SEN policy to ensure the wellbeing and academic progress of all learners.

The school accepts applications for day and boarding pupils from all over the world at any stage of their educational journey. Prospective families may schedule a personalised tour or informational session, and the admissions team is available to assist with inquiries for Kindergarten, Preparatory, and Secondary levels. A non-refundable assessment fee of 3,000 KES is required for scholarship applicants.
