📚 Curriculum Approach: CBE, Montessori, and Holistic Growth
Waridi School is committed to high-quality education, utilizing modern frameworks and proven methodologies to cater to individual learning styles.

Competence Based Learning (CBL): The school’s vision centers on being a model institution for Competence Based Learning (CBE/CBC), providing a relevant and engaging education across all sections (Nursery, Primary, JSS). This approach is designed to produce intellectually curious, capable young people who are selfless contributors.

Integrated Curricula: We offer both the Montessori curriculum in the Nursery section (giving preference to its graduates for Grade 1 entry) and the comprehensive Kenya National Curriculum in Primary and Junior Secondary. This dual approach ensures foundational readiness and academic rigor.

Holistic Development: Our education emphasizes the social, spiritual, emotional, physical, and intellectual development of each learner, utilizing innovative techniques and fostering life-long learning through technology.
