    Bad review

    the receptionists are so bad! i asked someone to drop off my phone to the reception as i was writing an exam in the hall(phones are not allowed in the venue and they get lost in our bags). the receptionist said she didn’t get the phone but when i came back with the president she’s like “you left it on the counter “ yet i sent someone, & if i left it on the counter why couldn’t she give it back?

    This school is so bad nkosyam

    I don’t know how this schools system works but I feel that it is nothing short of horrible, you can’t even get ahold of them directly during an emergency…the staff don’t even seem to care. What are we actually paying for? Every time my child comes home it’s something new. Not the best environment for a child icl!!

    Lack of Discipline

    Some teachers have openly expressed that they do not care whether their students pass or fail as long as they receive their salary. This is highly demotivating for students who look up to their teachers for guidance and support. Such attitudes are unacceptable and detrimental to the students' academic and personal growth. It's disheartening to learn that the very teachers who show indifference towards their students' success ensure that their own children attend the best schools. This disparity...

    a school that has a potential of leaders

    am new by my this school. I find this school really interesting and it has really good learners ,it might have bad things that sometimes happen but their education is the best and they try by all means for the school to produce a lot of future leaders and it is a school that mesmerizes with good education
