Founded 25 years ago, High Peak Schools has grown from a small learning institution into one of the most respected educational institutions in the country. Over the years, we have built a reputation for academic excellence, holistic development, and a commitment to nurturing well-rounded students who excel both inside and outside the classroom.
High Peak Schools was established with a vision to provide quality education that not only meets academic standards but also prepares students for life through the development of their talents, character, and leadership abilities. From humble beginnings, the school has steadily grown, offering a broad range of educational programs that cater to the developmental needs of students from Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) all the way through to Junior Secondary School.
Since its inception, High Peak Schools has placed a strong emphasis on academic achievement. The school quickly became known for its innovative approach to teaching, integrating modern educational practices with a strong foundation in core subjects. Our students consistently perform well in national examinations, achieving impressive results that reflect the dedication of both our teachers and students. Our approach to learning is shaped by the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), which allows students to explore their individual strengths, develop critical thinking skills, and be better prepared for the challenges of the future. Our commitment to personalized learning ensures that every student’s potential is nurtured and cultivated, setting them up for lifelong success.
While academics have always been at the core of our mission, High Peak Schools also recognizes the importance of co-curricular activities in shaping well-rounded individuals. Over the years, we have excelled in various disciplines, with particular distinction in drama and music.
From the early days of the school, we placed a strong emphasis on the performing arts, encouraging students to express themselves creatively and build confidence. This focus has led to an extraordinary track record of success in national drama and music festivals. Our students have consistently showcased their talents, winning major titles and accolades, and earning recognition for their exceptional performances.
In the field of drama, High Peak Schools has produced award-winning plays, with students demonstrating an unparalleled passion for storytelling, character development, and performance. The school has won numerous accolades in local, regional, and national drama festivals, becoming a household name in the world of Kenyan performing arts. Our drama productions have touched on important themes, entertaining audiences while promoting cultural awareness and social values.
Similarly, in music, High Peak Schools has established itself as a leading force in the performing arts scene. Our music students have regularly won top honours in national music competitions, showcasing their musical talent through choral performances, instrumental solos, and ensemble pieces. Through our music program, students have not only honed their technical abilities but also developed a deep appreciation for the arts, earning the school a reputation as a hub for aspiring musicians.
Through years of hard work, commitment, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, High Peak Schools has become nationally recognized for its achievements. Our drama and music students have represented the school at national festivals, earning the school a place among the top institutions in Kenya when it comes to the arts. This recognition is a testament to the dedication of our students and staff and to the nurturing environment that the school provides for young talent.
The school’s participation in national competitions and festivals has not only brought honor to the institution but has also helped to raise the profile of the performing arts in our community. Our commitment to co-curricular excellence has played an essential role in establishing High Peak Schools as a leader in the development of future Kenyan artists.
