Named after the independence-era minister James Gichuru, this public primary school stands in Dandora Phase II and is one of two government primaries in the Dandora Area II ward. Children from the surrounding estates attend from pre-primary through the upper primary grades, and the school also hosts junior school learners under CBC. Its compound regularly serves as a polling centre during general elections, so it is a familiar landmark for local residents. The school is mixed and runs as a day school under the Nairobi City County education department.
