Kisumu County’s MM Shah Primary School has set a new benchmark in the education sector by becoming the first primary school in Kenya to purchase a state-of-the-art double-axle school bus.
The ultra-modern bus, which was recently unveiled at the school, has drawn widespread admiration for its exceptional design, comfort, and innovative features tailored to enhance the welfare of learners.
Unlike conventional school buses, the new MM Shah vehicle comes fully equipped with a small office for the headteacher and a lavatory, allowing learners to ease themselves comfortably during long-distance academic trips and educational tours.
This innovation reflects the school’s forward-thinking approach to learner safety, convenience, and dignity while on the move.

The school representatives described the acquisition as a landmark achievement and a symbol of progress in educational infrastructure.
They expressed pride that MM Shah continues to set the pace in embracing modern innovations that improve both teaching and learning environments.
Parents and the wider Kisumu community have lauded the school’s management for prioritizing comfort and safety, noting that the bus will not only serve academic purposes but also help learners participate in inter-school competitions and educational excursions with ease.
The initiative cements MM Shah Primary School’s reputation as a leader in innovation and educational excellence, inspiring other schools across Kenya to reimagine what is possible in the pursuit of quality learning.
