Peponi School is an international, co-educational school in Kenya set about twenty-five kilometres outside Nairobi near Ruiru.


It was founded in 1989 and has been very fortunate to enjoy very early success and would now be rated amongst the best schools in the Kenyan education system. 

Peponi follows the British system through to IGCSE and A Level. The School is situated in our own very spacious grounds on the beautiful Sukari ranch. 

Our pupils have developed a fine reputation for success in the classroom, on the games field and for both Music and Drama. 

Our unashamedly holistic approach, as a boarding school, is a key feature of our aims. Extra-curricular activities are very much part of school life. 

As one of the leading British curriculum schools in Kenya, we prepare our pupils for entry to universities in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada. 

Most of our leavers enter Law, Economics, Science, Medical and Engineering courses.

Our success is now driving a substantial growth and Peponi is currently seeking to appoint, for September 2016, dynamic and inspirational teachers:
 
1) To join our very successful English Department. This department is one of our best and the ability to teach both Language to IGCSE and Literature to A Level will be required. The position of Head of Department will be available to a suitably qualified candidate.
 
2) To head our Art Department. This is a very diverse department, working in a range of media and the ability to teach these through to A Level is essential.

3) To lead our Learning Support Department.

4) To teach Religious Studies at A Level.

5) To teach Mathematics to IGCSE and A Level. Experience of Further Mathematics would be a positive.
