What People Say About Us

We picked the school because of how diverse it is. They strike the balance between keeping the education high with a student body that better reflects the city (Ugandan and expat alike). They manage to create the inclusive atmosphere that we promote at home.

KCIS proved to us parents their ability to pass from a normal school to online/hybrid learning with so much ease. They have handled the Covid situation very well and were able to make every kid and their parents adapt to the new style of learning easily.

It is a small school so there is more care and follow up with each student as well as more time is given to each student.
