KCSE 2025: Ghanima El-Marzuq Girls Tops Kajiado County

Ghanima El-Marzuq Girls Secondary School has emerged as the top-performing school in Kajiado County in the 2025 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations, results released yesterday.

The school posted a mean score of 9.32 points, a marked improvement from 7.42 recorded in 2024, outperforming several long-established institutions across the county.

The achievement is notable given the socio-economic background of many of the candidates. A significant number of students come from underprivileged households, with many being orphans who rely on well-wishers for school fees, learning materials and basic necessities.

Speaking after the release of the results, School principal Barika Salim attributed the strong performance to discipline, teamwork and the determination of both students and teachers.

“Our students refused to be limited by their backgrounds. Through discipline, unity and commitment from both learners and teachers, they achieved this remarkable success,” she said.

Ghanima El-Marzuq Girls Secondary School is sponsored by Direct Aid Kenya, whose support has played a key role in enabling vulnerable girls to access education and pursue academic excellence.

Education stakeholders in the county have hailed the results as a demonstration that targeted support and strong school leadership can significantly improve learning outcomes, even in challenging circumstances.
