Kambura-ini Mixed Secondary School is a day school. It’s a single streamed school with an enrolment of 137 students, 10 teachers and 4 non-teaching staff. The school is in Naromoru location, Kieni East Division Nyeri North District. This is an Arid and Semi-Arid land (ASAL) on the leeward side of Mt. Kenya. The staffs have no sanitation facilities and are thus forced to cross to the church for the facility which has raised a conflict between the school and the church. This poses serious health risks among the staff.
