Drive-In Primary School

Drive-In Primary takes its name from the old Drive-In area off Outer Ring Road, where it shares a large block of land with Ruaraka High School. The county's list of public primaries places it at the edge of Mathare North, close to the Allsops junction with Thika Road. It is a public, mixed day school that draws children from Mathare North, Allsops and the estates along Outer Ring Road. In 2007 the school had about 1,460 pupils taught in 24 classrooms. Today it runs pre-primary and primary classes under the Competency Based Curriculum, plus junior school, and admission follows the normal procedure for Nairobi public schools through the sub-county education office.
