Marces Academy was established in 11th January 1999 by Mr. and Mrs. Mutuku. The school began in Githurai 44 before moving to its present site in 30th December 2008. The Senior School was added in 2008.
Since its first students took the KCPE exam in September 2009, the Junior School has consistently ranked as one of Nairobi’s top performers. Graduates have gone on to succeed at leading secondary schools and universities, eventually securing high-profile jobs in Kenya and abroad.
