Located in the heart of the Kibera informal settlement in Nairobi, Olympic Primary School is one of the most populous public schools in Kenya, currently serving over 5,000 learners. Historically celebrated as a premier academic giant that consistently topped national examinations in the 1980s and 1990s, the institution faced significant structural strain following the 2003 introduction of free primary education, which caused enrollment to nearly triple. Despite ongoing challenges with overcrowding and teacher shortages—with some classes exceeding 70–100 students—the school has undergone extensive modernization.
