Moi High School Mbiruri is a public boys’ boarding secondary school in Embu East, Embu County, near Runyenjes. Its development reflects the expansion of secondary education in the region.
History and background
The institution began as a primary school in 1953 and became a secondary school in 1965 under Anglican Church sponsorship. It later admitted boys and girls before becoming a boys’ school in the 1990s. It adopted the name Moi High School Mbiruri in 1987 and was upgraded to national-school status in 2011.
Education and student life
Schooling combines academics, character formation, co-curricular activities and leadership development. Students should confirm the senior-school pathways and subject combinations currently offered rather than relying on older 8-4-4 subject lists.
Admissions, fees and examination results
Admission to public senior school is governed by the applicable national placement system. Families should use genuine joining instructions, obtain a current fee structure and confirm authorised payment methods. KCSE performance changes each examination year; historical figures are not current rankings.
