Cambridge International Curriculum in Runda
Choosing the right curriculum is about more than preparing your child for their next examination. It is about preparing them for what comes next.
The Cambridge International Curriculum provides a structured and internationally recognised pathway that encourages learners to develop deep subject knowledge while strengthening critical thinking, problem-solving, communication and independent learning.
At Makini School Cambridge Runda, learners are encouraged to ask questions, explore ideas, think critically and take increasing ownership of their learning.
The result is an education designed to develop learners who are
knowledgeable, confident, curious and prepared for future academic opportunities in Kenya and internationally.
Why Choose Makini School Cambridge Runda?
Internationally Recognised Learning Pathway
The Cambridge International Curriculum provides learners with a globally recognised academic pathway and a strong foundation for progression towards internationally recognised qualifications, including Cambridge IGCSE.
Academic Confidence
We believe strong academic outcomes begin with strong foundations. Our approach builds knowledge progressively, helping learners understand concepts deeply, apply what they have learnt and approach increasingly complex work with confidence.
Independent & Critical Thinking
Learning goes beyond memorising information. Learners are encouraged to question, investigate, analyse and solve problems, developing the independence and critical-thinking skills required for future study and life beyond school.
Strong Character & Values
Academic achievement is only one part of a successful education. A Makini education places equal importance on character, responsibility, discipline, respect and leadership, helping learners grow into confident and grounded young people.
Future-Ready Learning
Our approach combines strong classroom teaching with technology-enabled and data-informed learning. Academic support tools such as ADvLEARN help create more personalised learning experiences and provide additional support as learners progress.
Learning Beyond the Classroom
Sport, creative arts, clubs, leadership opportunities and other co-curricular experiences give learners opportunities to discover their strengths, develop confidence, build relationships and grow beyond academics.
