Pharo School Nairobi
One school across three campuses, expanding toward senior secondary. Part of the Pharo Schools network, run on a shared pedagogical model.
Pharo School Nairobi, Kenya.
A Pharo school, built to last.
Pharo School Nairobi teaches 1,775 students across three campuses on land and buildings owned by Pharo, and is expanding into senior secondary to complete the pathway.
Pharo School Nairobi sits inside one national network of curriculum, assessment and teacher development, so a lesson learned in one school improves the others.
We measure ourselves on whether a child who starts here finishes here, and on what happens to them afterwards.
In Kenya, a place at a good school is rationed by cost.
Quality schooling is scarce and expensive where we work, and the children with the most potential are the least likely to find a classroom that can develop it.
This is not a shortage of ability. It is a shortage of access to the institutions that turn ability into qualifications and work.
Our response
Pharo School Nairobi offers a continuous path, a shared standard, and local leadership developed through the network.
A continuous path
A clear route through the grades, so a child can complete their schooling without a forced transfer.
One shared model
The Pharo Graduate Profile and pedagogical spine anchor teaching across every campus.
Local leadership
Run by a local team, developed through the network’s teacher and leadership programmes.
Our impact
2025 figures, reported in the annual report.
What we learnt
Continuity beats intensity.
A child who stays for years outperforms one given a single intervention. Keeping students enrolled is where the returns are.
Local leadership is not a compromise.
Schools led by people from the community recruit better, retain better and are trusted more.
The network multiplies quality.
Shared curriculum, assessment and teacher development mean each school raises the others.
