questions

Homeschooling: common questions

Is homeschooling allowed in Kenya?

Kenya's Basic Education Act (2013) does not set out specific rules for homeschooling, and parents remain responsible for their child receiving a full basic education. We teach the official syllabus, and learners sit recognised exams as private candidates, so their results carry the same weight as any school candidate's.

Which curriculum should we choose for homeschooling?

CBC suits families planning to stay in the Kenyan system. Cambridge or Pearson Edexcel give internationally recognised IGCSE and A-Level qualifications. We'll help you decide in the free consultation.

What does a homeschooling day look like?

Younger learners usually study in the morning; older learners follow a fuller timetable. We agree the schedule with you and adjust it as your child progresses.

Can my child go back to a school later?

Yes. Schools admit learners on their results, so a homeschooled learner can apply like any other candidate.
