  • Education Cabinet Secretary, George Magoha, has ordered headteachers to register Grade 6, Standard 8, and Form Four candidates for their national examinations within one week. 

    Speaking while supervising Form One Admission at Kapsabet Boys High School in Nandi county on Saturday, May 7, Magoha cited laxity in the registration process that kicked off in April 2022. 

    Grade 6 students ought to be registered for the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) while Class Eight and Form Four candidates will be registered for KCPE and KCSE exams respectively.

    “To the headteachers and principals, we are disappointed that you have yet to start registering students and pupils for the forthcoming KPSEA, KCPE and KCSE exams which must be ready.”

    “Please ensure that every child is registered. I hope we are not going to argue about this. The government is paying exam fees for all students. It is the children’s right,” he stated. 

    The national examinations are scheduled to take place between November and December this year.

    He also noted low turnout in Form One admissions, condemning the headteachers who defied his directive and sent students home because of fees. 

    Alluding to this, Magoha noted that a mop-up exercise would be conducted next week. 

    “Stop listening to people who are saying that the 100 per cent transition has failed. The 100 per cent transition is working. We are going to mop up every child to go to school. That is President Uhuru Kenyatta’s order,” he stated. 

    Magoha’s Ministry has been working round the clock to ensure a smooth transition to the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) and to lay the foundation for the next government after the August 9 polls.
