Nyeri High School information


Nyeri High School, also known as Nyeri High, is a boys boarding school situated in Nyeri, Kenya near Mathari Consolata Mission Hospital, which provides secondary education as stipulated by the 8-4-4 Curriculum. Despite being acknowledged as an academic giant in the region,[1] the school has also developed a notoriety for student unrest culminating in the death of four school prefects in a fire caused by student arson[2] and followed a few years later by a student strike that led to an official government inquiry into the running of the school.[3]

In 2006, Nyeri High School was ranked 22nd best high school in Kenya based on Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education results.[4]
