New Pumwani Primary School is a public, mixed-gender day school located on Kinyanjui St in the Eastleigh South area of Nairobi, Kenya, operating under the management of the local government authority. It is categorized as a special school, with a total of 20 classrooms and separate toilet facilities for boys, girls, and teachers. The school has recently undergone significant renovations, including major repairs to classrooms, offices, and toilets, a fresh coat of paint, and the construction of a new perimeter wall to enhance the safety and security of the learning environment and deter encroachment.

Despite such improvements, the school, like many public institutions in Kenya’s low-income areas, faces challenges such as potential classroom congestion and ensuring consistent student attendance amidst socio-economic pressures in the surrounding community. The school is committed to providing accessible education, featuring both a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking.
