The 2019 directory titled this institution Nyagwethe Secondary School. The 2026 senior-school listing calls it Nyagwethe Mixed Secondary School. Both refer to the institution in Gwassi North, under KNEC code 41709207 and UIC RKR9. The name and URL are therefore updated to the more specific current register name.
Location, visitor directions and postal address
The institution is associated with Gwassi North near Sindo in Homa Bay County. Earlier Kenyanlife information gives P.O. Box 101–40308, Sindo as its mailing address. Postal towns, administrative school districts and the actual campus location need not be identical. The postal details are historical, not a verified current address. Ask school staff for directions to the entrance before travelling, sending original certificates or posting admission documents.
Nyagwethe is associated with Gwassi North. An older directory records the Sindo postal address, while school geodata places the campus in the Nyagwethe area. The exact entrance and safe route should still be confirmed before a visitor travels, and the current post-box address should be checked with school staff.
Telephone number, email address and official school website
A current school-operated telephone number, official email address and website have not been independently authenticated for this update. Request a reliable school contact through the administration or the responsible Sub-county Director of Education. An education-directory advertisement for school websites or email accounts is not a school’s own official contact. Before paying, verify the identity of the account holder with the institution.
KCSE examination results and school performance
The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) administers the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination. Candidates should follow KNEC’s year-specific guidance and obtain official individual result slips through their registered examination centre or school. The 2026 listing identifies the school by KNEC code 41709207 and UIC RKR9. These codes are useful when checking school selection, but should be checked against the current official placement system.
A school-results directory reports historical mean KCSE scores of 4.889 in 2010 (36 candidates), 5.094 in 2009 (32 candidates), and 4.100 in 2008 (10 candidates). These are explicitly historical secondary-source figures, not current results or independent KNEC certification.
When comparing examination performance, identify the examination year, number of candidates and source of the grade distribution. An undated ranking or old KCPE results service should not be mistaken for a current KCSE performance report.
Grade 10 placement, pathways and subjects
The senior-school selection process under Kenya’s Competency-Based Education system uses approved subject combinations across pathways such as STEM, Social Sciences, and Arts and Sports Science. The Ministry of Education Grade 10 Selection and Placement System is the appropriate place to confirm active school choices, placements and joining instructions. An individual school’s cluster does not guarantee that every national pathway or subject combination is available.
The school-directory snapshot checked on 15 October 2026 listed six combinations: four in STEM and two in Social Sciences. Examples included Biology, Chemistry and Physics, and Business Studies, Geography, History and Citizenship. That same snapshot listed no Arts and Sports Science combination. This is dated course availability and must be confirmed on the official selection portal before learners make choices.
Applicants should confirm the institution’s registered name, its correct centre identifier, subject availability and accommodation arrangements for the specific admission year. Learners should choose combinations suited to their interests and strengths, rather than selecting solely by a school’s historical category or reputation.
Fees, day or boarding arrangements, and joining requirements
Current fee circulars, reporting dates, available meals, uniform requirements and any boarding supplies should come from the school itself. Government school financing guidelines are not a substitute for an approved school-specific bill. Ask the administration for a dated joining package and verified payment details; never transfer fees to a personal number found in an unverified directory.

School-specific directory reference and verification note
The school-specific classifications and codes where included are based on this third-party senior-school record, which states that it references Ministry-derived school lists. That directory is not itself the Ministry of Education and does not independently confirm active phone contacts, current fees, vacant school places or the school’s exact entrance.
Any significant decision should be based on the latest school-issued or Ministry-issued documents. This profile will require another update when fresh primary evidence becomes available.
