Consolata School, a private Catholic co-educational day school, was founded in 1967 under the guidance of the Consolata Missionaries. Initially established with just one class in Standard One, the school quickly expanded and by 1970, a new block of eight classrooms, an office, a staff room and a dining hall with a kitchen was completed under the leadership of Fr. Luigi Testa, the Parish Priest of Consolata Church. The school then served 144 learners.
Over the years, Consolata School continued to grow, eventually offering nursery, primary and secondary education under the Kenyan national curriculum. By 1984, the introduction of the 8-4-4 system led to the construction of a workshop block, funded through a 10 km school walk, to support practical learning.
Fr. Anthony Giordano took over in 1987, overseeing the development of new classrooms, a library, an art room, a science lab and a hall, alongside the integration of swimming galas and the computerisation of the school’s laboratories.
In 1997, under the leadership of Fr. Attilio Benoni, Consolata High School was commissioned. His tenure saw significant advancements, including the establishment of swimming galas for competitive spirit and further computerisation efforts.
Fr. Caroli Ouma Ogeda succeeded Fr. Benoni in 2010, focusing on teamwork, discipline and ownership. He played a key role in expanding the school's transport system and improving sports facilities, notably by adding basketball courts and enhancing the football pitch.
In 2020, Fr. Peter Ochieng took on the role of Director, working closely with the current Principal, Madam Grace Murianki-M. The school now accommodates over 1,700 learners across its nursery, primary and secondary sections, with a strong focus on academic excellence, discipline and holistic development.
Consolata School has remained true to its mission of nurturing morally upright and academically excellent individuals, whilst keeping pace with modern educational trends, such as the adoption of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
