Education Programs
At KMBPS, Kenya’s technology-leading primary school, we prepare your child for academic excellence and future success by providing a supportive, Christian values-based, and innovative learning environment. From early childhood through junior secondary, children build essential literacy and numeracy skills, develop 21st-century digital competencies, and explore unique opportunities like our exclusive Aviation Club.
Three decades of excellence speak louder than promises. Since 1992, KMBPS has consistently delivered top academic results, with our 2024 KCPE score of 456/500 leading Central Kenya. Our graduates don’t just pass—they thrive in Kenya’s best National Secondary Schools, including Alliance, Mang’u, Starehe, and Kenya High.
Learning at this age should feel like play. Our early years teachers create environments where children explore, discover, and develop foundational skills naturally. We focus on building confidence, social skills, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
- Play Group
Your child transitions from play-based learning to more structured education. We introduce core subjects while maintaining hands-on, engaging activities. Small class sizes mean your child gets individual attention.
- (Grades 1-3)
Students dive deeper into subjects while developing critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Our well-equipped science labs, computer rooms, and libraries support independent learning and research skills.
- (Grades 4-6)
The final stage before high school. We prepare students for the transition ahead while helping them explore potential career interests through our specialized programs like the Aviation Club and advanced computer classes.
- (Grades 7-8)

Our Educational
Philosophy
We believe every child has potential waiting to be unlocked. Some children excel in mathematics. Others shine in sports or arts. Some are natural leaders. Others work best behind the scenes.
Your child is unique. Our job is to figure out what makes them special and help them develop those gifts. That’s why we offer more than just classroom learning
Building Skills Beyond Books
Education isn’t just academics. Your child needs opportunities to explore interests, develop talents, and build life skills like teamwork, leadership, and perseverance. That’s why we offer programs you won’t find at other schools.
