Makini Schools, part of the ADvTECH Group, has expanded its offering by acquiring Regis Runda Academy.
While welcoming Regis staff, students, and parents, Horace Mpanza, the regional managing director of Makini Schools, said Regis will be rebranded as Makini School Runda.
He stated, “We plan to build on the strong foundations the founders of Regis have laid, and our intention is to take the school to the next phase of its development,” adding that the move will shape the future of learning in Kenya.
Situated in the Ridgeways area, northeast of Nairobi, the school has a current capacity of 2,000 learners and will be rebranded as Makini School Runda. ADvTECH will take over operations on 20 August 2025.
“We are delighted to increase our Makini Schools footprint in Kenya and to bring the brand’s compelling proposition to parents and students in one of the fastest developing regions of Nairobi,” said ADvTECH Group CEO, Geoff Whyte.
In November 2024, ADvTECH acquired Flipper International School in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. In June, it officially launched Rosebank International University College in Accra, Ghana.
These developments reinforce the group’s commitment to providing superior private education across the African continent.
