Pastoral Care
At the Academy, learning extends beyond the classroom. We nurture our students’ emotional, social, physical, and cognitive well-being through a strong pastoral system that encourages holistic development.
Residential Life
Our dedicated residential team creates a homely, supportive environment where students can thrive. Through structured life skills programs and consistent mentorship, learners gain the confidence and tools to navigate life beyond the classroom.
Spiritual Life
We honour and nurture each learner’s spiritual growth, supporting diverse backgrounds and promoting values such as compassion, integrity, and purpose. The Academy provides a respectful and inclusive environment where students are encouraged to practise their faith, whether it be Islam, Catholicism, Seventh-day Adventism (SDA), or Protestant Christianity.
Counselling, Safeguarding & Protection
Counselling
Our counsellors guide students in understanding themselves, managing personal challenges, and achieving personal growth. Through individual and group sessions, learners build resilience, emotional intelligence, and life skills.
Safeguarding & Protection
The well-being of our students is at the heart of everything we do. Our dedicated care teams ensure every learner receives the support, guidance, and resources they need to thrive. We maintain a robust Child Safeguarding and Protection Policy, aligned with internal protocols and national legislation—including the Children Act 2011, Sexual Offences Act 2006, and the TSC Act 2012. We work closely with the Department of Children Services, the judiciary, and other partners to uphold the highest standards of child safety.
Health & Mentorship
Clinic
The Academy’s well-equipped clinic is staffed with a clinical officer, nurse, and on-call support to provide timely medical attention. For serious cases, we refer students to trusted health facilities in Thika and Nairobi.
Mentorship
At MPESA Foundation Academy, Mentorship is one way in which students are helped to achieve their goals and to live out their purpose. It is a powerful program through which students’ psycho-social well-being is taken care of. Through mentorship, students get someone who is more experienced and more knowledgeable than they are to walk the leadership journey with them. Individual or corporate mentorship is welcome. Mentoring opportunities include personal coaching, group training, work shadowing and participation in career days.
