As part of our mission, we aim to ensure students gain a progressive, internationally-focused education of the best quality. Access to a diverse network of schools, learning institutions and governing bodies helps further the opportunities of our student body, in East Africa and abroad.
Building Connection Through Collaboration
Round Square is a worldwide association of schools that share unique and ambitious goals. Students attending Round Square schools across 5 continents make a firm commitment, beyond academic excellence, to their personal development and social responsibility. Member schools participate in service learning projects, exchange programmes and adventurous activities.
Student Exchanges & More
Our international school in Nairobi is a member of the Round Square network of schools, enabling student exchanges with other Round Square Schools, access to international conferences and collaboration in International Service (RSIS) projects.
Round Square schools are founded on the ‘Six Pillar’ philosophy of educator Kurt Hahn. They are:
Internationalism
Democracy
Environment
Adventure
Leadership
Service
The Round Square IDEALS are integrated into teaching and learning through the Discovery Framework and the Citizenship Award at Brookhouse.
The Award develops servant leadership skills, service learning engagement, commitment to the processes of internationalism and democracy, undertaking adventurous challenges and environmental stewardship.
The Citizenship Award aims to:
G-30 Schools are a worldwide association of prominent schools, demonstrating a commitment to excellence and innovation in global education. G-30 Schools attend an annual conference, bringing together leading school Heads to consider critical issues facing education in the 21st Century.

In 2017, Brookhouse hosted the G-30 Heads conference with the guest of honour, The First Lady of Kenya, Magaret Kenyatta.
The Council of International Schools (CIS) is an association of international schools from across the world. Schools gain accreditation by achieving the highest standards in learning and processes to deliver a world-class international education to pupils.
The Independent Association of Preparatory Schools (IAPS) is a UK-based organisation designed to ensure that a high-quality learning environment is maintained at the Preparatory School level.
Why Did Brookhouse Seek Accreditation?
Any school can tell parents and the broader community that it offers outstanding education. However, we want external and independent agencies to conduct inspections and evaluate our practices. School inspections enable us to demonstrate our efficacy in providing quality educational opportunities for the young people in our care.
As an Accredited School, we are:

What Did the Evaluation Reports Indicate as Specific Strengths of Brookhouse?
Why Choose CIS and IAPS?
A CIS inspection is exceptionally rigorous and assesses each area of school life. IAPS inspections provide a focused opportunity for the Preparatory section of the School to undergo a rigorous self-study, followed by an accreditation visit.
Accreditation Has Value
Brookhouse is accredited by CIS and IAPS, providing parents with assurance regarding our education. In addition to undergoing rigorous self-assessment, the School has been evaluated by a team of experienced professionals, meets high academic and professional standards, and is subject to regular visits and monitoring by external agencies.
The School is registered with the Kenyan Ministry of Education. It is also fully accredited by the AQA, Edexcel and Cambridge International Examination (CIE) Boards, all of whom oversee the delivery of our UK Curriculum provision.
