A school where every learner grows

Utafiti Comprehensive School in Kikuyu nurtures curious, confident learners from pre-primary to junior school, with day and boarding places.

About us

Utafiti means "research" in Kiswahili, and that spirit runs through everything we do. Our learners are encouraged to ask questions, explore, and discover what they are good at.

We follow Kenya's Competency-Based Education curriculum from PP1 to Grade 9, combining strong foundations in literacy and numeracy with creative arts, sport, and character formation. Day scholars and boarders learn side by side in a caring, disciplined environment.

Our mission

To nurture every learner academically, socially and spiritually, so that each child searches for knowledge and excels in all they do.
