Viraj International Academy is a co-educational day and boarding school in Kenya serving learners from 3 to 18. The school offers a blended Kenyan National Curriculum via Competency-Based Education and the Cambridge International Curriculum, with Cambridge IGCSE and Cambridge A Levels, and a Bespoke Curriculum, complemented by Montessori Education for the early years. The Global Curriculum combines Kenyan and Cambridge approaches to provide an internationally minded program. Since opening in 2015, the academy has grown into a campus with modern facilities, including fully equipped computer labs, science laboratories, smart classrooms, a library, and dining services, plus comfortable boarding houses with 24/7 supervision. The sporting program features swimming, track and field, and inter-school competitions, alongside a broad extracurricular offering. A distinctive feature is the integrated approach that pairs Kenyan education standards with Cambridge qualifications, supported by CSR initiatives and a Student Council to foster leadership and community engagement.
