Raila Educational Centre Primary School is a private, mixed-gender day school strategically located in the Kisumu Ndogo area of the expansive Kibera constituency in Nairobi, Kenya. The institution is committed to providing a holistic education that emphasizes discipline, academic excellence, and integrity within a safe and nurturing environment. The school follows the national Kenyan primary education curriculum, with a contemporary focus on transitioning to the new, learner-centered Competency-Based Education (CBE) system designed to promote critical thinking and practical life skills. Boasting a student enrollment of around 364 pupils across 10 classrooms, the school manages a healthy pupil-to-classroom ratio of approximately 36.4:1, facilitating effective learning and engagement. The school actively promotes a strong partnership between staff, parents, and the wider community, ensuring continuous development of facilities, which include academic blocks, sanitation systems (e.g., 4 boys’, 4 girls’, and 4 teachers’ toilets), and sports areas, partly through support from local initiatives like the NG-CDF.
