According to director of education of Webuye West sub county Mrs Adelight Mbakulo, the school management and the Education ministry arrived at the decision after wide consultations with relevant stakeholders.
She said this was to pave way for serious investigations on the issues raised by the students while at Webuye police station, which she noted are weighty and require time to look into. She urged parents to inform the school amangement when their children reach home just to be sure of their safety. The school has 306 Form Four candidates.
