DESCRIPTION
Outering Education Center, also known as Outering High School, is a formal learning institution. The school is located in Kariobangi Light Industries, Kariobangi South, along Outering Road, opposite Pioneer Estate, was established in 2004 and duly registered in 2013 under Registration No. PR/S/1/2536/13 by the Ministry of Education and is since then an approved KCSE examination centre serving many schools within the locality.
Other services provided by the school include:
• Educate the less fortunate children to a higher level of learning.
• Bring quality services to children through behavior change communication (BCC)
• Bring orphans and vulnerable members of the community together for mutual support and participation.
• Promote African culture through drama and other related activities.
Outering High School students face the challenge of limited access to clean drinking water. The 201 students often have to walk long distances from the playing field with bottles in order to access clean water. The school’s water kiosk was built in December 2014 with the collaboration of Kariobangi South Youth Empowerment to serve the school and surrounding communities.
