There is a genuine naming difference in official and secondary sources. Kenya’s Parliament referred to “Bulesa Day Secondary School” in June 2026 while considering a 2025 audit report. The Ministry-derived senior-school list calls the institution “Bulesa Secondary School,” places it in Merti, and lists C3 mixed boarding provision with code 17356203. Both references are relevant, but they do not establish whether a formal rename has occurred.
School name and identity checks
The school’s recorded day-to-boarding difference is substantial. A Biliqo/Bulesa community plan previously proposed upgrading Bulesa Day Secondary School to boarding, while newer school-listing information describes mixed boarding. The school should confirm whether dormitories are operating, the intake arrangements, and the approved 2026/2027 fee notice.
Location and directions
The institution is associated with Merti sub-county, Isiolo County. Its previously published postal address is P.O. Box 56–60300, Isiolo (older Kenyanlife entry; not confirmed), but this has not been confirmed as current by the school. The town where a school receives letters may differ from where its main gate is located. Confirm the entrance, travelling route and reporting venue with the administration before visiting.
Telephone, email and website
A school-operated current phone number, official email address and official school website were not independently verified for Bulesa Day Secondary School. Ask the administration or the appropriate Sub-county Director of Education for contact information. Avoid sending identity documents, boarding deposits or fees to numbers on unofficial listings. Commercial advertisements offering a school website are not contact details for the school.
KCSE examination results and academic performance
The Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education is administered by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC). Candidates should collect official result slips through their school or examination centre and follow the instructions for their specific examination year. The 2026 register lists Bulesa Day Secondary School under KNEC centre code 17356203; verify the centre code against the actual year’s exam documentation.
No unverified current KCSE mean grade has been attributed to Bulesa Day Secondary School. For an accurate comparison, request a dated report showing the examination year, number of candidates and grade distribution. An undated ranking cannot establish academic performance.
Grade 10 selection and subject combinations
For Kenya’s current senior-school admissions, learners use the Ministry of Education Grade 10 Selection and Placement System. Subject pathways nationally include STEM, Social Sciences, and Arts and Sports Science, but school offerings differ. Applicants should search using the school’s correct registered name and identifier and check which subject combinations can actually be selected for their intended intake.
Until the school or Ministry confirms its exact current registered name, the existing Bulesa Day Secondary School title and URL are deliberately retained to avoid an incorrect 301 redirect. Students using the Grade 10 portal should match the school by its official code 17356203 and UIC 8MJ6.
Fees, boarding or day-school arrangements and joining instructions
Request the school’s latest signed fee circular, reporting date, uniform and stationery lists, meals or boarding requirements where applicable, and confirmed payment account. Historic fee examples and government-wide limits are not school-specific invoices. The school should explain which amounts are compulsory and which services are optional.

School-specific source and verification note
The school directory record is a secondary source for the institution’s classification and identifiers where available. Its school-code information is described as derived from the 2026 senior-school listing. It is not a primary government confirmation of current school fees, phone numbers, coordinates or a legal change of name. The institution and the Ministry are the correct sources for final admissions and registration decisions.
