History
The establishment of Leera Schools was inspired by a vision born out of necessity to address the challenges and limitations facing the private education sector. The desire and determination to overcome these issues developed into a concrete idea in 2019, which later blossomed into Leera Schools. This initiative brought together some of the island’s senior academic advisors and established harmonious educational facilities to support its mission.

Years of History and Education
Leera Schools is proud to serve the communities in Zanzibar. Our reputed independent institution offers a wide range of subject choices, small class sizes, experienced, committed teachers and a multidisciplinary programme of additional sports, cultural and academic activities.
We aim to prepare our learning community for a fast-changing world. Our School cultivates an integrated, holistic setting that encourages the transfer of skills across multiple subjects. In daily learning, cross-curriculum referencing expands understanding and ensures education remains relevant and memorable to adequately train students for future study.
Our years of experience shows that long-lasting knowledge is effectively gained through an enjoyable process of discovery, which is why our passionate educators reach teaching objectives by bringing the syllabus to life. Teaching staff organise regular excursions to places of historical and cultural significance, design exciting practical STEAM lessons, and invite guest speakers to assemblies. They also employ experiential techniques, such as role-play and drama, to demonstrate key concepts.
