This is a slight increase from 681 in 2008.
The school is in Eastern part of Nkubu market about 500 meters from the Nkubu-Mujwa road off Meru – Chuka highway in Meru County . The school occupies a 33 acres piece of land. The development of the school is based on the site plan developed at inception
The school programme is holistic in approach as it gives time for academic work, sports, club and society meetings, and spiritual time .
Nkubu High School was founded in 1956 under the sponsorship of the Catholic diocese of Meru. The colonial government was opposed to the establishment of a boys’ secondary school in the locality and consequently mabati (iron sheet) structures were hurriedly put up by the Consolata Fathers under the stewardship of the then Bishop of Meru the late Rt. Rev Lawrence Besone.
It was to be managed by the Brothers of The Sacred Heart as a public school, admitting African boys from around Meru and beyond.
Nkubu High School has enjoyed stable and visionary leadership since inception. To date it has had 14 head teachers, five of whom were Brothers of the Sacred Heart and a Priest of the order of Consolata Missionaries.
Nkubu High School has always remained steadfast in entrenching and instilling discipline on its students. The office of the school principal works in close partnership with that of the deputy principal, the discipline master and the Guidance and Counseling department and of course the rest of the teachers towards this end.
The high discipline standard has remained a key pillar behind our success as a school, both academically and otherwise. Once in a while, when it calls for it, we involve the parents in a tripartite approach to resolving emerging issues of discipline involving their sons.
Vision:

Mission:
“Nurture a disciplined and determined school family that is inspired towards providing holistic learning to students to become responsible and productive participants in the global community”
