In a development that has sparked mixed reactions, the delay in the transmission of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results, announced today by Education CS Julius Migosi Ogamba, has drawn criticism from teachers in Trans Nzoia County. The main concern centers around the network failure that disrupted the smooth flow of results to schools and parents.
At St. Joseph’s Boys National School, Deputy Principal Nahashon Tsuma expressed frustration over the delays, revealing that many parents and students had been calling the school, anxiously requesting their results. Despite the technical setback, the school was able to celebrate a remarkable achievement: all 50 students who sat for the exams achieved a grade of C+ or higher, with five students earning an impressive A.
Similarly, St. Brigid’s Girls National School, led by Principal Inviolata Lukorito, saw extraordinary results, with 15 students scoring straight As and 30 others securing A-. While the results continued to stream in, the school took pride in its disciplined student body, strong teacher-student relationships, and support from local political leaders—factors that Principal Lukorito credits for the stellar performance.
Over at St. Patrick’s Makunga Mixed Secondary School, Principal Moses Wawire and his team also celebrated exceptional results, with more than five students earning B+ grades. Wawire thanked all the school’s stakeholders for their collaborative efforts, expressing confidence that the school was on track to improve its performance even further in the future.
Despite the technical hiccups in the results transmission, schools across the region are optimistic that the education sector will address these challenges moving forward to ensure smooth and timely delivery of examination results.
