The current 2026 register retains Harambee Mixed Secondary School as a public C4 mixed day school. Older data places it in Kawere sub-location, Kojwach, while the original WordPress article uses the broader Kasipul and Kadongo location. These geographic descriptions are not a substitute for directions to the school gate.
Physical location, visitor directions and postal address
The school is associated with Kawere sub-location, Kojwach, near Kadongo in Homa Bay County. The old directory gives P.O. Box 138–40223, Kadongo as a mailing address. A post-box town does not necessarily mark the school campus, and earlier post-office details may have been replaced. Visitors should request up-to-date directions to the entrance from the administration, especially when travelling for an admission interview, reporting day or document collection.
Day-school access matters for learners commuting from Kawere and the Kadongo area. Confirm school hours, daily transport, lunch options and any approved school-specific charges. Do not use a historical staff contact or unnamed personal mobile number as a current official school contact.
Telephone number, email address and school website
A current school-operated telephone number, official email address and verified school website have not been independently authenticated for this update. Parents should obtain the latest contact details directly from Harambee Mixed Secondary School or the relevant Sub-county Director of Education. Some old school directories contain commercial offers for website or email services; these are not school-issued contact details. Avoid paying into an unverified account or sharing sensitive learner information through a number copied from an old listing.
KCSE results and KNEC examination information
The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) administers the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examinations. Candidates should follow the instructions for their examination year and collect official result slips through the school or examination centre at which they sat the examinations. The 2026 senior-school directory lists 41743213 as this school’s KNEC code. The learner should confirm that it matches their official examination or school record before requesting results.
The older school directory reports very small historical enrolment and staffing counts; those figures are from an older dataset, not present-day numbers. No independently verified current KCSE mean or recent year-by-year results were established.
A reliable academic-performance comparison requires a named KCSE examination year, the number of candidates and a verified grade distribution. A score quoted without an examination year, or results from another school with a similar name, should not be treated as confirmed performance.
Grade 10 admission, placement and subject combinations
Kenya’s Competency-Based Education system allows Grade 9 learners to select senior-school options and subject combinations across STEM, Social Sciences and Arts and Sports Science. The Ministry of Education Grade 10 Selection and Placement System is the official starting point for checking school choices, placements and joining information. Families should identify Harambee Mixed Secondary School by its registered name and KNEC code 41743213 or UIC LGJ3 where these identifiers are displayed.
A dated subject directory shows STEM and Social Sciences options, including some business and humanities combinations. The number of subjects and available places can change, so the official Ministry placement system is the final check for the relevant intake.
Learners should choose subjects based on their interests and abilities and make sure the selected combination is actually available at the school for the intended intake. A school cluster does not, by itself, establish that every pathway or subject combination is offered. Selection deadlines and placement announcements change between years; use official circulars instead of older Form One or KCPE application instructions.
Current fees, joining instructions and reporting requirements
The current school-issued fee circular, joining letter and approved payment details have not been independently checked. Ask for a dated package covering uniforms, books, reporting dates, meals, transport where applicable, and daily reporting and school-meal arrangements. Government-wide fee guidelines are not individual school invoices, and additional permitted expenses should be confirmed in writing before money is paid.

School-specific research source and limitations
The 2026 classification, codes and school identity are supported by this school-specific directory entry, which reflects a Ministry-derived senior-school register. It is not itself an official school registration certificate and does not verify current fee invoices, contact details, exact school gates or vacancies. The school and Ministry-issued documents remain the reliable sources for consequential decisions.
