Academics

Orero Boys High School follows the national curriculum through 8 departments.

Departments

  • Careers Department

    Guiding students to choose their path for a purposeful life and nation-building. Every learner leaves Orero with a clearer sense of direction beyond the classroom.

  • English Department

    A rigorous grounding in the language of instruction and international communication — comprehension, composition and confident spoken English.

  • Kiswahili Department

    Kwa watu karibu 500,000,000 wanaozungumza na kuandika lugha ya Kiswahili, weledi walio makinika zaidi, hutoka hapa! (Serving nearly 500 million Kiswahili speakers, our most capable graduates come from here.)

  • Biological Sciences

    Every living thing is Biology. We help our students understand themselves and everything alive around them, from cell to ecosystem.

  • Technicals Department

    Molding students for a competitive job market with practical, hands-on skills that complement classroom theory.

  • Mathematics Department

    We help our students love Maths, for maths is the core of life. Everything is Mathematics — and we teach it to be understood, not feared.

  • Humanities Department

    The soft side of learning is housed here. Our History, Christian Religious Education and Geography teachers give meaning and context to life.

  • Chemistry Department

    Air, water and soil are the basic building blocks of our existence. Here, students learn about them best, in fully equipped laboratories.

Careers guidance

The Careers department works with every subject department to help students connect what they learn to what comes after school: university, technical training or vocational routes into work.

Together with the hands-on programmes of the Technicals department, this gives graduates of Orero Boys High School a practical head start.
