At Kipepeo School, we pride ourselves on being an Inclusive International School. Our unique approach to education combines the principles of Montessori; a focus on inclusivity and individuality, fostering a love for learning. These principles reach their fullness in the British Curriculum that we offer. Our Preparatory School pupils follow the Cambridge International Examination and Common Entrance Examinations. We create a warm, supportive, and secure environment where each child is valued as a unique individual, allowing them to develop at their own pace.

Kipepeo School welcomes children from 1.5 to 5 years in the Early Years program and children aged 5 to 14 years in the Preparatory School program. Our curriculum is carefully designed to cater to the developmental needs of each age group, providing a strong foundation for their future academic and personal growth.

By encouraging exploration, questioning, reasoning, and communication, your child will develop holistically and gain essential life skills, including independence, confidence, and respect for others.

At Kipepeo School, we celebrate and acknowledge every child's effort without placing value judgments on their performance. We believe in fostering self-esteem, self-direction, and self-discipline through inner motivation and self-evaluation. Our emphasis on encouragement over evaluation allows children to develop a strong sense of self and trust in their own abilities.

We value strong partnerships with parents and actively encourage their involvement in their child's education. Kipepeo School conducts regular parent-teacher forums where parents can collaborate with teachers to provide an inclusive, play-based, and high-quality teaching and learning environment.
