The Joyland Special School started in 1974 by the Salvation Army as a school for physically challenged children. Today, there are 235 students being cared for and educated by 22 teachers. The main service offered at the school is that of correcting limb deformities through a process that involves surgery and physiotherapy. Although the children will not attain total cure, they are enabled to use their limbs and are able to walk on their own. Alongside this, the children receive primary level education with boarding and lodging. The school is managed by a School Board of Governors, whose thirteen members are appointed by the Kenyan Ministry of Education in liaison with the school's sponsor, The Salvation Army.
