Joseph Kangethe Primary School is a public, mixed day school located along Joseph Kangethe Road in the Nyayo Highrise area of Nairobi’s Dagoretti North Constituency. Managed by local government authorities, it serves a diverse student body of over 1,060 pupils (approximately 482 boys and 578 girls). The school is particularly notable for its commitment to inclusive education, being one of the few institutions in the Kibra area that specifically caters to children with disabilities. In 2025, the school has undergone significant infrastructure improvements, with ongoing projects including interior floor casting and classroom renovations to accommodate its growing population and provide a modern learning environment. Beyond basic education, the school fosters social awareness through initiatives like the Justice Club, which advocates for children’s rights and safety, and it has hosted high-profile visits from national leaders, including President Ruto, to support students during national examinations.
