Our Lady of Fatima Secondary School is a Catholic-sponsored public mixed day school serving the communities of Korogocho and Kariobangi North in Nairobi. It was established to improve access to secondary education for families who might otherwise struggle to afford schooling.
School history and Catholic mission
The Comboni Missionaries founded the school in 1988. A research account from Tangaza University records that it moved to its present location in 1991, the same year its first students sat the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination. The school developed from one stream into a larger institution. The Catholic Church’s sponsorship helped support facilities and the community’s educational aspirations.
Motto, vision and values
The traditionally stated motto is Save Africa with Africans Through Higher Education. The school’s mission emphasises accessible, quality education, character formation and the development of boys and girls able to contribute to their families and wider society.
Education and student life
School programmes combine classroom learning, guidance, student activities and opportunities to develop abilities and responsibility. Prospective Grade 10 learners should confirm the approved senior-school pathways and subject combinations through official placement channels.
Admissions and school fees
Follow the current Ministry of Education selection procedures and verify the school’s official joining letter. Obtain a current signed fee schedule and approved payment directions; do not assume historic charges or account numbers remain valid.
KCSE and academic performance
Exam performance should be evaluated for an identified examination year, using official or school-verified results. Undated rankings cannot establish current results.
