A word from our Director

A Word from the Director
of Alpha High School.

“Together, we can empower the next generation to thrive and make a meaningful impact in their communities and beyond.”

Ms. Fatina Said

Managing Director, Alpha High School

As the Managing Director of Alpha High School, I am honoured to pay tribute to our esteemed founder, Professor Aloysius Mayo. His visionary leadership laid the foundation for Alpha Schools, which include Alpha Nursery and Primary School, Alpha Girls High School, and Alpha High School. Professor Mayo's commitment to preparing young Tanzanians for success in the competitive realms of technology, entrepreneurship, and the evolving challenges of our global landscape continues to inspire us all.

At Alpha, we take pride in the remarkable achievements of our alumni, who represent a diverse range of professions both locally and internationally. Our graduates have excelled as accountants, medical doctors, lawyers, engineers, pilots, and in many other fields, demonstrating the effectiveness of our comprehensive educational approach. I warmly invite all parents and guardians to consider registering their sons and daughters at Alpha Schools. Here, we offer a well-rounded curriculum that fosters not only academic excellence but also personal growth and character development. Together, we can empower the next generation to thrive and make a meaningful impact in their communities and beyond.

Thank you for your continued support in shaping the future of our youth.

Warm regards,
Ms. Fatina Said
