Miiri Primary School is a public, mixed-sex day school located in the Githobikoni area of Gatundu North, Kiambu County. Managed by the central government, the institution serves over 200 learners but has recently faced a severe teacher shortage. As of March 2025, reports indicated only four teachers remained at the school, with only two actively teaching, following multiple transfers and retirements that left students unable to sit for standard examinations. Despite these challenges, the school has undergone infrastructure improvements funded by the NG-CDF, including the completion of an administration block, classrooms, and a computer room to support the transition to Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum.
