In the tranquil village of Kapkong, Uasin Gishu County, Paul Boit Boys High School has defied expectations to become one of Kenya’s most remarkable success stories. Once a modest rural institution, the school’s extraordinary journey is a powerful testament to faith, determination, and visionary leadership.


In 2024, the school achieved a mean KCSE score of 7.6, with 157 students securing direct admission to public universities—an academic leap that has captured national attention. This breakthrough is largely credited to the transformative leadership of Chief Principal Shem Busolo, who has turned the school into a thriving hub of both academic and co-curricular excellence.


Firmly grounded in Christian values, Paul Boit Boys High School lives by the motto “Faith We Go.” This spiritual foundation informs every aspect of school life, nurturing disciplined, morally upright learners ready to face the challenges ahead.


The introduction of academic clinics—collaborative forums involving teachers, students, and parents—has revolutionized how student progress is tracked and supported. These clinics have been pivotal in identifying learning gaps early and providing tailored interventions that drive improved performance.


Leadership among students is equally strong. The school’s active student council fosters peer mentorship and discipline, ensuring a culture of support and responsibility that permeates the entire student body.


Outside the classroom, the school has cultivated a vibrant co-curricular program that includes sports, drama, music, debate, and science competitions. These activities not only develop talents but also build confidence and teamwork.


Backing these achievements is a dedicated alumni association, which plays a key role in mentorship, fundraising, and infrastructure development. Their engagement strengthens the school’s sense of community and continuity.


Today, Paul Boit Boys High School, Kapkong, stands as a benchmark institution—a symbol of what faith-driven leadership, strategic innovation, and collective effort can achieve. Its meteoric rise signals a new era for education in Kenya, inspiring other schools and communities to follow suit.


With a clear vision and relentless drive, Paul Boit Boys High School is not just preparing students for exams—it is shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
