Utumishi Boys Academy History

The idea of starting a school for police officers’ children was conceived in the early 1960s, however it was until 1991 when the commissioner of police the late Philip Kilonzo began implementing the idea. On 30th may 1991, the first steering committee was formed. Its first chairman was the former Senior Deputy Commissioner of Police, Hon Elijah Sumbeiywo. On December 30th, 1992, the principal Mr. Willie M. Mugoh was posted to the school. He was soon followed by twelve teachers. On 26th Jan 1993, the school admitted its first 80 boys and girls.

They were accommodated in the primary school since the complex had not been completed. Students used wooden houses in the anti-stock theft unit Police line as the boys’ dormitory and the school dining hall. The school soon outgrew the facilities the primary section could offer and so in January 1995, the school was moved to the incomplete complex structures.

Except for the period between April 1994 and October 1997, when construction had stalled, the school has steadily grown in terms of physical facilities and in the students’ academic facilities and in the students’ academic performances. After Mr. Mugoh proceeded on transfer, Mr. peters Orega took over as the new school head. Mr. Orega has since retired and the new school head is Mr. Samuel G. Maina
