Welcome to KBS
At KBS learning is personalised, differentiated to meet the needs and interests of each individual learner. Moreover, both the curricular design and the students’ informed choices ensure that content has a relevance to the learner’s local and regional context, cultural background, and broader global context. Through guided, self-directed learning, students become more independent and able to solve problems, initiate projects, and act creatively together with their peers. Through active experimentation and real-world laboratory experience, students develop their competence as capable STEM researchers. A commitment to leadership, service and an international outlook lie at the heart of its values.
Our Missions
Our core aim is to make Kilimanjaro British School (KBS) one of Burundi and the East African’s, leading and most inspiring co-educational and selective schools for boarding and day pupils.
We seek to be a vibrant and challenging school, which opens the minds and hearts of our pupils, teachers, parents and all other members of our community. We wish to provide a transformative experience, developing to the full each pupil’s ‘Eight Aptitudes’ including their intellectual, artistic, sporting, spiritual and social faculties, while ensuring that each grows to understand that serving and caring for others brings the highest rewards in life and the greatest likelihood of long-term happiness and fulfilment.
