Full Boarding provides a home-from-home environment with on-site Common Rooms, weekend activities around Nairobi, chapel services and supervised prep; escorted transfers between Peponi School and Jomo Kenyatta International Airport are provided at the start and end of term. Weekly Boarding combines full boarding with family time on weekends, with all weekday meals provided and after-school activities, plus a weekly boarding bus serving Nairobi and its environs; Day pupils share a room in their House, with options to stay overnight for late activities and a daily transport service to locations around Nairobi.

Peponi School is an independent coeducational day and boarding school located just north of Nairobi, Kenya, serving pupils aged 12 to 18. The curriculum follows Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge International AS Levels and A Levels, with Pearson Edexcel IGCSE as an option, delivered by staff who emphasise small class sizes and differentiated learning from Shell (Year 9) through Upper Sixth (Year 13). The school blends Kenyan heritage with a traditional British international education guided by the founders' motto ‘Every child matters.' The fifty-acre Peponi Senior School campus at Ruiru offers a Main Hall for performances, a School Chapel, and a recording studio, plus extensive Art, Photography and Design facilities and a Music department that supports ensembles and productions. The academic programme sits alongside a strong sports culture, the Talented Athlete Programme and KAISSO, and a robust outdoor education offering. A wide range of clubs and societies—academic, arts and community service—complement learning and personal development, with transport arrangements for international pupils.
