After Braeburn Nanyuki
Completing Year 8 is a major milestone for our children, marking both the end of their time at Braeburn Nanyuki, and the start of an exciting secondary school chapter. Our strong academic foundation, supportive guidance, and focus on individual strengths ensure that each learner can make informed choices about their future. Whether moving to another school within the Braeburn Group or embarking on an international journey, our families can feel entirely confident in their child’s preparation.
Many of our Braeburn Nanyuki graduates go on to attend one of the Braeburn Group’s three boarding schools:
Braeburn Garden Estate
Located in the green outskirts of Nairobi, Braeburn Garden Estate Senior School is a haven for learning, creativity, and growth, offering IGCSE courses from Year 9 – 11, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma or the International Baccalaureate Career Certificate programmes in Years 12 – 13. More than just a school, Braeburn Garden Estate is a vibrant international community where over 80 nationalities learn together in an atmosphere of inclusivity and respect. This diversity enriches our classrooms and friendships, preparing students to take their place in the world with confidence and compassion.
At the Treetops Boarding House, Braeburn Garden Estate provides the option of warm and welcoming weekly or full-time boarding facilities for students in Years 7 to 13, where we offer varying accommodation to suit the different ages of our pupils. Our primary objective is to create a closely-knit and inclusive community, where every child feels safe, supported and cared-for throughout every moment of the academic year.

Braeside Thika
Set in the serene surroundings of Thika, Braeside accommodates pupils aged 11 to 18 through a broad and engaging Cambridge curriculum. During Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, students receive tailored guidance to select their ideal IGCSE subject combinations, before progressing to Sixth Form (Key Stage 5) where senior learners can specialise through traditional A-Levels or career-focused Pearson BTEC Diplomas in Business and Hospitality. We pride ourselves on offering excellent academics within a warm, friendly, and nurturing environment built on a culture of mutual respect. Supported by an extensive co-curricular programme and personal academic mentoring, our dedicated staff empower students to achieve their full potential, building confidence for life.
In our dedicated boarding facility, Braeside Thika offers full and weekly boarding programmes centred around active, communal living. Boarders reside in four-bed ensuite rooms thoughtfully allocated by key stage, complete with daily cleaning and laundry services, relaxed DSTV and Wi-Fi lounges, and a rich activity schedule featuring swimming, football, lawn tennis, pool, and rounders.
