Application Deadlines

Given the changes to the National Academic Calendar, the deadline for the submission of the Yellow Form and the Additional Information Sheet has been extended. We recommend that these documents be hand-delivered to the Centre, or sent by a reliable courier service that provides proof of delivery/receipt.

Fees at Starehe

At least 70% of the places at Starehe are reserved for children from poor backgrounds, while 30% are granted to fee-paying children. Starehe seeks sponsorship for the disadvantaged children – and is only able to keep them in school due to the generosity of persons and organisations of goodwill from across the world.

Old Starehians, our alumni, are our largest single sponsor. The fee-paying boys are charged fees according to the means of their families, subject to an economic minimum.

We ardently encourage candidates applying for a sponsored place at Starehe to also apply for support from the various Foundations and Programmes that support poor children, including the Constituency Development Fund, County Government Bursaries, Equity Wings to Fly, the KCB Foundation, Education for All Children, etc.

Admission to Starehe does not disqualify a child from receiving such support. Where they are granted such support, it will fund their education at Starehe should they be admitted at the Centre.
