Tenwek High School continues to raise the standard—not only within the classroom but across all facets of student life. Boasting an impressive 91.04% university transition rate and an increasingly prominent presence in national sports competitions, the school stands out as a holistic center of excellence—where academic rigor, athletic prowess, visionary leadership, and world-class infrastructure seamlessly converge.
Under the visionary guidance of Senior Principal Simon Mutali Chesebe, Tenwek High School has experienced a remarkable transformation. Although not a native of the local Kalenjin community, Chesebe has earned widespread respect and admiration for elevating the school’s academic performance and fostering a culture centered on student achievement and integrity. One of the most inspiring facets of his leadership is his personal mentorship of eight boys from disadvantaged backgrounds—all of whom achieved B plain and above, exemplifying the school’s unwavering commitment to inclusivity and equal opportunity.
With a commendable mean grade of 8.411 (B-), Tenwek consistently ranks among the nation’s top schools. This year, over 488 students qualified for direct university admission, a testament to the school’s disciplined environment and relentless pursuit of academic excellence. Such success is no accident. It reflects deliberate leadership, a dedicated and motivated teaching staff, and a supportive learning environment that empowers every student to excel.
Tenwek High School’s reputation extends well beyond academics. The school consistently shines in county and regional competitions in football, athletics, volleyball, and basketball, with numerous students advancing to represent the region at the national level. At Tenwek, sports are integral to holistic education—not merely extracurricular activities. They instill values of teamwork, resilience, discipline, and leadership that prepare students for life both on and off the field. "A great school must nurture not only the mind but also the body and spirit. At Tenwek, we are committed to developing well-rounded, competitive individuals," Principal Chesebe affirms.
From state-of-the-art classrooms and digital laboratories to upgraded sports facilities and comfortable dormitories, the school’s infrastructure transformation under Principal Chesebe has been comprehensive. These enhancements reflect a bold vision to establish Tenwek High School as a national benchmark in academic and co-curricular excellence.
As Tenwek High School continues its upward trajectory, pride resonates throughout the community. Parents, alumni, teachers, and the broader Bomet region stand united behind a school that consistently fulfills its promise—to educate, inspire, and lead. With academic results that command respect, sports teams that uplift, and leadership that transforms, Tenwek High School is not just excelling—it’s setting the standard for others to follow.
