PANGANI GIRLS’ BRIEF HISTORY
The school was founded in the year 1932 in pre-independent Kenya.
The school was formerly called the Duchess of Gloucester School, named after Princess Alice the late who was the Duchess of Gloucester.
By then, only Asians were allowed to school there and it was located around Ngara, Pangani area in Nairobi.
The school was then offering Cambridge and Higher Cambridge School Certificate which is equivalent to today’s O-Level and A-Level education respectively.
Soon after independence, the school was renamed Pangani Girls High and Africans were also allowed to enrol.
The school was initially a day-school before being converted into boarding in the year 1986.
At the time, it was ranked as an extra- county secondary school.
Its consistency in posting exemplary results finally paid off when it was made a national school in the year 2011 to offer a better quality of secondary education.

Pangani Girls works on a two-tier model.
The first one focuses on providing wholesome education through the four key programs run by the school administration.
