Nova Pioneer Eldoret Primary is the private Nova Pioneer group’s CBE (CBC) primary campus in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County. Its 2027 sheet covers Playgroup to Grade 5, with a day option for every class and boarding from Grade 4. The Nova Pioneer Eldoret Primary (CBE) 2027 School Fees Schedule (PDF) was published on 14 April 2026, well ahead of most schools, and is linked from Nova Pioneer’s fees page. All figures below come from it. This page is accurate as of October 2026.

Day Option per Term, 2027, KSh
| Class | Tuition | Meals | Total per term | Year (termly, as published) | Year paid in advance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Playgroup, PP1, PP2 | 34,053 | 11,000 | 45,053 | 135,158 | 121,642 |
| Grades 1, 2 and 3 | 58,454 | 12,625 | 71,079 | 213,236 | 191,912 |
| Grades 4 and 5 | 70,144 | 12,625 | 82,769 | 248,308 | 223,477 |
The three pre-primary classes pay the same fee, as do Grades 1–3 and Grades 4–5. The published yearly totals are all KSh 1 away from three times the termly figures (for example, 3 × 34,053 is 102,159, while the sheet prints 102,158), which looks like rounding. The big step is starting Grade 1, which adds KSh 24,401 a term in tuition and KSh 1,625 in meals. Grade 4 adds a further KSh 11,690 a term.
The sheet stops at Grade 5. If your child will reach Grade 6 here, ask the school whether a Grade 6 class will run in 2027 and what it will cost.
Boarding Options, Grades 4 and 5, per Term, KSh
| Option | Tuition | Boarding | Total per term | Year (termly, as published) | Year in advance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weekly boarding | 70,144 | 48,900 | 119,044 | 357,133 | 321,419 |
| Full boarding | 70,144 | 61,100 | 131,244 | 393,733 | 354,359 |
Full boarding costs KSh 12,200 a term more than weekly boarding. Boarding for children of nine or ten is a big decision. Our boarding vs day costs guide sets out what else to budget for.
The Annual Payment Option
Paying the whole year by 30 December 2026 earns a discount that the sheet labels as 10% on tuition. In the figures, meals and boarding are also cut by 10%. A day family saves KSh 13,516 a year in pre-primary and KSh 21,324 in Grades 1–3. Otherwise the termly deadlines are 2 January 2027, 22 April 2027 and 19 August 2027.
Other Costs, KSh
| Item | Who pays | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Caution fee (refundable when the contract ends with one term’s notice) | New students | 10,000 |
| Enrolment fee | New students | 5,000 |
| Administration fee (annual) | All students | 1,040 |
| Annual PTA fee | All students | 1,500 |
| Annual academic field trip | Students going on the trip | 5,000–20,000 |
| Paid clubs and sports | All students (as listed) | 3,000–10,000 a term |
| Kiswahili lessons for international students | International students | 3,000 a term |
The sheet lists paid clubs and sports as “all students” but gives a range, so ask whether any club is compulsory and what the lowest real cost is.
Two First-Year Examples
A new Grade 1 day child: 213,236 + 10,000 caution + 5,000 enrolment + 1,040 admin + 1,500 PTA = KSh 230,776 on the termly option, before uniform, clubs and trips.
A new Grade 4 full boarder: 393,733 + 10,000 + 5,000 + 1,040 + 1,500 = KSh 411,273. Both are our arithmetic. The KSh 10,000 caution is refundable.

How It Compares
Eldoret Primary is far cheaper than Nova Pioneer’s Athi River campus. There, Grades 1–2 cost KSh 133,500 a term with meals, about 1.9 times the KSh 71,079 here. After primary, Nova Pioneer’s Eldoret Boys and Girls campuses charge KSh 124,600 a term for Grade 7 tuition. In western Kenya, Makini Primary Kisumu City charges KSh 57,522 a term for Grade 4 with lunch included. Public primary schools charge no tuition. See the fees hub for more.
