Kikuyu Boys High School is a public boys’ boarding institution located in Kikuyu, Kiambu County, along the Nairobi–Nakuru Highway corridor. Sponsored by the Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA), the county-level school admits learners mainly from Kiambu and other parts of Kenya. It operates under government regulations and is recognised within the basic education system.
Admission into Form One is primarily done through the Ministry of Education placement process. After learners complete primary school and sit the national assessment, successful candidates are posted through the official selection portal. Transfer opportunities into other classes are limited and depend strictly on available vacancies. Parents seeking transfers are advised to contact the school directly to confirm space and required documentation.
As a public boarding school, Kikuyu Boys follows the government-approved fee guidelines. Under the current structure for public secondary schools, the annual fee is approximately KSh 53,544. However, parents should always verify the latest fee structure with the school because approved charges and requirements may change slightly from year to year.
Regarding academic performance, the school’s detailed 2025 KCSE results, released in January 2026, are not widely published online. For official performance data, stakeholders are encouraged to check the Kenya National Examinations Council portal or contact the school administration.
Students at Kikuyu Boys wear a formal uniform that reflects traditional public boarding standards. The attire typically includes a light grey or blue short-sleeved shirt, a green-and-white striped tie, dark grey trousers, black leather shoes, grey socks, and a navy blue V-neck sweater. Boarding students must also carry games kit, bedding, and personal items as specified by the school.
The institution is situated in the KARI area of Kikuyu, opposite the Presbyterian University of East Africa Nairobi Campus. For inquiries, the school can be reached via phone at +254 727 921118 or email at kikuyuboyshs@yahoo.com
