Hi, Jafferys academy is a Muslim school, st austins and st Mary's  are reasonable in price and they offer the British curriculum

St Marys is an 8-4-4 school, which offers the International Baccalaureate at senior level, not a British System School.

St Austins follows the British curriculum, as does the Braeburn Group of schools. 

Nairobi Jaffery Academy is an islamic school that also follows the British curriculum.   

The above schools have campuses in the Lavington area.  Please consider that the traffic is horrendous in Nairobi and children who don't live near the school can take a long time to get home, which can be very tiring for them.

Another one to consider is St Christopher's School, in the Karen area.

Maryam Academy is an Islamic IGCSE Integrated school.  It's in Kilimani Area near Yaya Mall.  Very reasonable fees and ideal for early years (yr4 and below).

Thanks for your reply

Ive heard about the traffic being very bad!!..
Ok so ill be moving to parklands areas so any such reasonable british curriculm schools there..
Thanks for ur help

In Nairobi, you can run from the traffic jam but it finds you everywhere. Parklands: try Aga Khan academy or Oshwal Academy.  Both very good schools (but not cheap though)

It may well be better to let the choice of school dictate the area in which you live, rather than the other way round!
