Mosocho Academy was a primary boys' boarding school admitting pupils from standard forms three to eight. In 1989, the school expanded to include the secondary wing which admitted its first batch of students in forms one and two that year.

In 1992, when the first Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination was sat, the school emerged as a top-twenty best in the country. From then, the schools attracted students from all over the country and beyond. Good performance continued for a time until in 1996. Decline in academic standards visited the school immediately after the death of the proprietor Dr Hon Z. T. Onyonka in 1996. However, inept financial and academic leadership drove it to almost financial ruin. It was bought in 2001, after the death of Onyonka, by an educational entrepreneur of Indian origin.
