Kenya Highlands University

The ideological heritage of educational instruction at Kenya Highlands University dates back to 1932 when missionaries of World Gospel Mission saw the need for training their converts.

This instruction not only needed to cover biblical and ministry-related subjects, but also teacher training. Teachers were prepared for the sixteen primary schools the mission had started. These first teachers also served as preachers in their communities.

A school first started in 1936 in the Sotik area as a Teacher’s Bible School and met in various locations. In 1944, the school was officially opened as Sotik Bible School and courses continued to combine training techniques in primary school teaching and Bible.
The following year, the Bible School students were separated from the teacher training group as the need for trained leadership for the church grew. In 1950 the school was relocated from Sotik to Cheptenye in Belgut area.
