CBE School in Likoni, Mombasa — Confident Innovators, SHINE!
Young Masters Academy is a CBE school in Likoni, Mombasa, nurturing curious minds and compassionate leaders since 2005. From Daycare to Grade 9, every child here is known, challenged, and cared for.
A School Built Around Your Child
At Young Masters Academy, we believe that every child is a natural innovator — curious, creative, and full of potential. Our role is to give that potential the right environment to grow. Since 2005, we have served families in Likoni through every change in Kenya's education system, from 8-4-4 to the Competency Based Curriculum and now Competency Based Education (CBE), and through all of it we have held to small class sizes, dedicated teachers, and a genuine culture of care. Here, academic excellence and personal development are not competing priorities. They go hand in hand. Explore how we teach and assess under CBE or see how to apply for admission.
Welcome to Young Masters Academy
Karibu. This school began in 2005 with one conviction: that every child in Likoni deserves to be seen, taught well, and given room to grow. A family has carried that conviction ever since, and we carry it on behalf of those who first believed in it.
We have watched the national system move from 8-4-4 to the Competency Based Curriculum and now to Competency Based Education. Our task has stayed the same: know each child, build character alongside grades, and keep the school safe, honest, and well run.
Thank you for considering us with your child.

Trusted by Families Across Likoni
The small class sizes make all the difference. My daughter's teacher knows her by name, knows what she struggles with, and knows what makes her proud. That kind of attention is hard to find — and at Young Masters Academy, it is just how they operate.
