Two-guardian contact model in Nairobi
recording two guardians on a student in Nairobi: separate contacts on one student profile. KICD, CBC Kenya, KNEC, IGCSE. Court orders on contact and collection override a form. Staff still need a written school process.

Two-guardian contact model in Nairobi
Nairobi schools are mid-transition on CBC Kenya under KICD, while many private campuses still run 8-4-4 remnants or British programmes in the same city. A student record that cannot store the CBC Kenya pathway without deleting the old stream will force a parallel spreadsheet.
Fees are in Kenya Shilling. The January term is the national rhythm; international campuses overlay a northern year and still have to pay staff on local cycles. Local named facts include KICD, CBC Kenya, Kenya Shilling, January term. Instrument: separate contacts on one student profile. Kenya Shilling tuition and transport; CBC Kenya stage changes should not silently clone fee structures. January term is the national default; international overlays must still share working days.
The student is one. The contacts are many. Invoices can still be assigned to a payer without hiding the child from the other guardian. Court orders on contact and collection override a form. Staff still need a written school process. Named owners still have to keep the holiday master, the roster, and the family view aligned in this place, because a brochure paragraph will not survive the first mid-year joiner or the first board week.
