I think its asking too much when the private school in question is not mentioned unless its just an imaginary scenario.

That said, I would be of a contrary opinion, if the said private school has good connections it might be a better choice because the kid might have access to a further scholarship to a good university outside the country.

Some private schools especially the good ones, provide very good exposure to the kids, including foreign trips and access to better facilities and conducive environments.

Plus financially the money you save during the 4 years, around 400-500 thousands can at least put the kid through a private university.


Please explain/substantiate the merits or lack thereof of studying in a foreign university vis-a-vis a local one.

guess its the same reason a kid would want to go to alliance and skip the local secondary schools in their neighborhood.
anyaway, at the top of my mind is exposure and resources.

Hallo wazuans,

Lets say your son had 430 marks, and his 1st choice was Alliance, which means he is assured of admission at Alliance. Then a good private school offers him full scholarship for 4 years. The normal school fees for the private school is in the range of 300K per year.

Would you take the offer ??

Depends on which school it is. And how it compares to Alliance
Personally I do not like Alliance. One time I went for a prize giving day. And man, those boys were dirty. And to think that they were at their best. I wondered how the dorms are in terms of cleanliness.


This is totally untrue!

Was a parent in that school for four years and never witnessed that.


@Queen, I am not telling tales here. I am writing about what I saw. They boy who finally left Alliance coz of bullying is now in 1st year at USIU.


Looks like that "bullying" story shall never go away. Hope the "bullied" boy also mentioned to you that the injuries he sustained and displayed to the media were NOT inflicted by somebody else but rather were self inflicted as he tried to jump through a closed glass window.


The boy who was bullied was kichwa ngumu. The prefects ganged up on him to teach him a lesson. Not supporting bullying, just giving facts.

smile but that is what you are doing, justifying bullying, I wonder what your perspective was/is or would be on the students who ganged up and taught prefects a lesson by torching them.

He wasn't at Alliance by merit. His parents paid the corrupt Principal cash for admission.

He was severely indisciplined. Teachers couldn't discipline him because he was the Principal's boy. He intimidated individual prefects.

The prefects "usered" him for conduct unbecoming of Alliance. Mbona asumbue watu wakisoma?

Principal was fired by TSC and he went into politics.
Life is short. Live passionately.
