PLEASANT VIEW SCHOOLS – OUR AIM IS VICTORY

Founded in 1998, Pleasant View Schools has grown from a visionary primary institution into one of Kenya's most celebrated Christian-ethos day and boarding academic institutions, situated amidst the peaceful green highlands of Githunguri, Komothai Subcounty, Kiambu County.

Across our 24-year academic journey, Pleasant View has consistently maintained distinguished performance, achieving an institutional average of EE (Exceeding Expectations) in KPSEA and ME1 (Meeting Expectations – Top Tier) in KJSEA, positioning our scholars permanently among the top 10 academic institutions across Kiambu County. In 2016, answering the earnest appeal of our parent community, we established our celebrated Senior School, which achieved a historic maiden mean grade of B+ in KCSE examinations. As the 8-4-4 system concludes at the end of next year, our Senior School is dynamically transitioning into the Kenya Senior School Education Assessment (KSSEA), supported by state-of-the-art Pre-Technical, Integrated Science, Agriculture, and Digital STEM hubs designed to nurture each child's pathway into top university distinction and ethical global leadership.
