Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu on Monday, January 16, released the Form One Placement for the 2022 KCPE exams candidates.
Addressing the press, CS Machogu noted that some candidates did not receive proper guidance on the selection of schools which resulted in some attracting far many applicants against their capacities.
"During the selection, it became clear that a large number of candidates did not receive proper guidance and direction when choosing schools. This resulted in some schools attracting far many applicants against their capacities," Machogu stated.
The Education CS added, "The results of the above means many candidates will not get their choices and have to accept that it is not possible to be placed in your “dream” school. I wish to call upon head teachers and parents to ensure candidates make wise choices through proper advice."
