The Mathematics Department at Mpeketoni Boys High School, led by Md. Kimberly Kanaga, is a hub of academic excellence and innovation. With ten committed teachers, the department has steadily improved its KCSE mean score from 3.9 in 2022 to 5.5 in 2023 and 2024, targeting 6.5 in 2025.

Embracing tools like GeoGebra and over 50 learning models, it fosters interactive learning. The department also hosts annual interschool math contests, with the next set for 17th May 2025. Guided by the slogan "Math: A Life Changer", it continues to inspire excellence, innovation, and growth in mathematical education.

From H.O.D Science

As Head of the Science Department, I am thrilled to share some thoughts on the vital role of scientific literacy in our rapidly evolving world. In today's society, understanding basic scientific principles is no longer optional; it's essential for navigating daily life, making informed decisions, and contributing to a better future.

Guidance & Counseling Department

At Mpeketoni Boys High School, our Guidance and Counseling Department stands as a pillar of support for every student. We promote holistic growth—mentally, emotionally, socially, and morally—ensuring learners face life’s challenges with confidence and integrity.

We provide academic support, emotional counseling, conflict resolution, career guidance, and parental engagement. Our approach emphasizes dialogue, understanding, and restorative justice rather than punishment.

Key Takeaway: Guidance and counseling is a safe haven for all. Every child matters. Every voice counts.

Science & Computer Labs

Our science laboratories (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) are fully equipped to support hands-on experimentation aligned with the national curriculum.

The computer lab features modern machines and internet access, nurturing digital literacy and coding skills among learners.

The dedicated team of teachers has facilitated the implementation of different programs to enable the improvement of performance in the two subjects. We are at 5.41 (C) in English and 7.9 (B+) in Kiswahili in the 2024 KCSE exam. The department is working tooth and nail to ensure the production of students who are equipped with essential communication skills for the global stage.

Language also goes beyond the classroom, through music and drama festivals where the students apply the skills they learn in literature and fasihi. They also participate in the Daily Nation/Taifa Leo writing competition where they practise their writing skills. The staging of setbooks is also done in Term One and Two to enhance better understanding of the same.

The vibrant Journalism Club also ensures the learners nurture their public speaking, reporting and writing skills. They also engage in debates/mjadala which help them refine their public speaking skills.

In conclusion, the department strives to ensure students appreciate the use of the languages since they are an integral part of the general performance of all the other subjects.

Looking Ahead

The school plans to integrate more digital learning tools, expand subject offerings, and build mentorship programs aligned with national development goals.
