School & College Websites in Kenya, Launched in 7 Days
Our work: kamagambo.ac.ke (opens in a new tab), Kenya's 90th university.
Key takeaways
- A school website should answer fees, admissions, term dates and programmes within one tap on a phone.
- Education institutions must register with Kenya's Data Protection Commissioner, so build privacy in from day one.
- Kavenacc built kamagambo.ac.ke, which scores 100 on Google Lighthouse SEO.
What every school website in Kenya needs
- Fees and payment details: fee structure per class or programme, paybill and account format, and deadlines.
- Admissions: entry requirements, how to apply, documents needed, and the next intake date.
- Term dates and calendar: opening, half-term and closing dates, exams and events.
- Programmes or curriculum: CBC, 8-4-4 or university programmes explained in plain language.
- Trust: real photos, leadership messages, accreditation status and contact details that are answered.
- An FAQ written in the words parents use, which also helps Google and AI assistants recommend you.
- WhatsApp and phone contact one tap away, because that's how most Kenyan parents get in touch.
Example: Kamagambo University
When Kamagambo became Kenya's 90th university in September 2026, its website needed to announce the change and turn interest into applications for the January 2027 intake. We built a homepage that leads with the news and an "Apply" button, programme pages, an admissions section and a 10-question FAQ covering accreditation, location, fees, entry requirements and how to apply.

Data protection for schools
Schools handle children's personal data, and education is a sector that must register with the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (opens in a new tab) whatever its size. We build with that in mind: we collect the minimum, secure forms, add clear privacy notices and consent for photos, and keep every account in the school's name.
