Ensure Education Sector is well managed, Ruto
told
President Dr
William Ruto has been urged to ensure that the Education Sector in the country
is well managed to avoid its collapse in the coming years.
Former
President of the East African Law Society James Aggrey Mwamu says there are a
number of problems bedeviling the education sector in the country which the
President must address for the sector to be on the right track.
Addressing
the Press at his Kisumu office immediately after the official release of the
Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education 2024 today, Mwamu said one of the
problems is in the management of the National exams especially Kenya Primary
School Education Assessment {KPSEA} for grade six and KCSE for form four.
Mwamu says
there is a problem if only 1,693 KCSE candidates 2024 out of 965,502 are the
ones who have scored a mean grade of A plain across the country.
Mwamu has
urged President Ruto to find the root cause of the problem bedeviling the
education sector in the country.
“The
Government must put its best foot forward to address the issues affecting the
education sector across the country otherwise, our education sector may
collapse in less than ten years,” Mwamu says.
On the
issue of Grade nine, Mwamu says the Government should be able to unlock the
current stalemate surrounding the implementation of the Competency base
Curriculum.
He says the
Government should have put enough infrastructures like class rooms in various
public schools across.
He urges
the Government to ensure that capitation is dispatched to schools now that term
one this year has officially kicked off, adding that delaying the capitation till
end of this month is not good at all and will greatly inconvenience the schools
operations.
