About Pleasant View Schools

OUR FOUNDATION

A Legacy of Educational Eminence

Founded in 1998, Pleasant View Schools has grown from a visionary primary institution into one of the most respected private Christian-ethos day and boarding school networks in Kenya. Situated amidst the scenic, peaceful highlands of Githunguri, Komothai Subcounty, Kiambu County, our campuses provide a serene sanctuary where learners thrive intellectually, spiritually, and socially.

Founded in 1998, Pleasant View Schools has grown from a visionary primary academy into a nationally acclaimed multi-campus group of schools in Githunguri, Kiambu County. Across our academic journey, Pleasant View has consistently maintained distinguished performance with an average of EE (Exceeding Expectations) in KPSEA and ME1 in KJSEA, positioning us 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 mean grade of B+ in their maiden KCSE examinations and dynamically transitions into the Kenya Senior School Education Assessment (KSSEA). Pioneering Kenya's Competency Based Education (CBE), our campuses feature state-of-the-art Pre-Technical, Integrated Science, and Digital STEM hubs designed to nurture each child's unique pathway.
