Welcome to Our School
Welcome to Nairobi Jaffery Academy Primary School. We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child can thrive. Our commitment goes beyond academic excellence, we believe that education is about shaping character, fostering curiosity and building confidence.
At NJA, we recognize that each child is an individual with unique talents and needs. Our philosophy places the child firmly at the centre of everything we do, ensuring that every day provides a new opportunity for success and happiness. We utilize the Cambridge framework for key subjects (English, Mathematics, Science) and the English National Curriculum for foundation subjects including Art, Geography, History and ICT.
