Grade 10 Holiday Tuition at FuKazee: What Happens and How Do You Join?

On this page

TL;DR:

  • FuKazee's Grade 10 holiday tuition runs from Monday 9 November 2026 to about Friday 11 December 2026, in Westlands, Nairobi, with experienced teachers.
  • The fee is KES 42,000 for the whole programme, as shown on our Grade 10 tuition page on 13 November 2026.
  • It is for learners in Grade 10 now, who move up to Grade 11 in January 2027. A place depends on availability.
  • The programme has already started. A learner who wants to join late can still ask, and we will tell you honestly whether it makes sense.
  • When you first message us, share your child's pathway, three electives, Core or Essential Maths, and the subject that worries you most.

Who this guide is for

This is for parents of a Grade 10 learner in or near Nairobi who are thinking about holiday tuition this December. Your child is in the pioneer class of senior school under Competency-Based Education (most of us still call it CBC), so there are few older siblings or neighbours to ask.

Every fact about the programme comes from our live Grade 10 holiday tuition page, checked on 13 November 2026. Where the page does not say something, we tell you to ask, and we do not guess.

New to the system itself? Start with our Grade 10 parents' guide or CBE explained, level by level.

First: does your child need holiday tuition at all?

Not every child does. Our honest view, as the tuition page puts it:

  • If your child is coping well and is tired, rest may do more good than extra lessons.
  • If one subject keeps going wrong, a few focused weeks can give them a real chance to catch up before Grade 11.

We know of no published study on holiday tuition under the new system. So judge any programme, ours included, by what it does for your own child.

What happens in the programme

Experienced teachers work with Grade 10 learners in Westlands from 9 November to about 11 December. Our view, as the tuition page says: if one subject keeps going wrong, a few focused weeks can help a learner catch up before Grade 11.

Each Grade 10 learner takes seven examined subjects: English, Kiswahili or Kenyan Sign Language, Mathematics (Core or Essential), Community Service Learning and three electives from their pathway. With so much that is new, a small gap in one subject can grow quietly before anyone at home notices.

That is why we ask about your child first, so we can tell you straight whether we can help. Some details are still being confirmed for each family, so ask us for the Grade 10 timetable and which teacher would take each subject.

Before you message us: six things to sort out

These six steps come from our Grade 10 tuition page. They help whether or not you choose us.

  1. Read the three electives. Look at the real subjects on your child's slip. A pathway label can hide a surprise. Our guide to choosing a Grade 10 pathway explains how pathways and electives fit together.
  2. Confirm which Maths it is. Core Mathematics and Essential Mathematics are different courses. A teacher needs to know which before the first lesson.
  3. Gather the year's school work. Bring exercise books, test papers and the latest report. A teacher sees far more from a marked page than from "the subject is hard".
  4. Keep assessed work honest. Projects and tasks the school grades must stay your child's own. Good teaching explains the idea and leaves the graded piece for the learner to finish.
  5. Protect some rest. Agree the free days as a family, and hold to them. A learner who has had a hard year still needs sleep, friends and time outdoors.
  6. Set home rules for AI. Sit together, try one tool for practice questions, and agree that it never writes work that gets handed in.

How to join, step by step

  1. Message us. WhatsApp or call +254 114 469 840, or email lead@fukazee.com. Please message before you plan your child's holiday around the programme, because a place depends on availability.
  2. Tell us four things. Your child's pathway, their three electives, Core or Essential Maths, and the subject that worries you most. This lets us give you a straight answer on whether we can help.
  3. Get the timetable and payment details. We share the Grade 10 timetable and tell you how to pay the KES 42,000 fee.
  4. Get the venue. We share the exact venue in Westlands with booked families before their first day.

Joining after 9 November

The programme started on Monday 9 November 2026. A late start is possible, but it depends on two things: whether a place is still open, and how much of the programme has already gone by. Send us a message and we will tell you honestly whether joining now is worth it for your child.

What tuition can and cannot promise

We cannot promise a mark or a grade, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Progress depends on your child's effort, their starting point and what happens at home too.

It also helps to know what is ahead. Grade 10 learners will not sit KCSE, which belongs to the older 8-4-4 system. Your child is expected to sit a national assessment at the end of Grade 12. Grade 10 school work may count: learners are registered on the national school-based assessment portal, but we have not found a published figure for how much it counts. Ask your child's school how its marks are recorded, and keep marked work somewhere safe.

When this may not be the right fit

  • Your child is in Form 3, not Grade 10. Our Form 3 holiday tuition is the programme for Form 3 students going into Form 4.
  • Your child is coping well and is worn out. Rest may help more than lessons.
  • You need dates after December. Later dates have not been set yet. Tell us your child's current class and we will let you know when they are.
