Introduction
FK International School was established in 1997 and has since built a strong and respected educational foundation. The school operates across two campuses, located at Mbezi Beach, Africana and Bahari Beach, providing a supportive and well-resourced learning environment.
Originally offering the National Curriculum (NECTA), FK International School transitioned to the British Curriculum (Cambridge) in 2013. This change was made in response to the growing global demand for high-quality literacy and International education. Since adopting the Cambridge curriculum, the school has experienced steady growth in both its Primary and Secondary sections.
Academically, the school has shown consistent improvement in performance, as reflected in Cambridge Checkpoint examinations for Primary and Lower Secondary, as well as in internal assessments. Beyond academics, FK International School has continued to excel in co-curricular activities, particularly in sports such as football and swimming, supporting the holistic development of its students.
