NAIROBI: An elaborate two-week Standard on Saturday investigation has exposed the full extent of the massive failures in last year’s national examinations. It shows that only 45 schools had students scoring a mean grade of ‘A’ out of the more than 6,000 centres.
The exams that were administered under a new regime led by straight-shooting Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i shockingly show that 15 academic giants that were among the top 20 schools in 2015 were blown off the charts by new entrants.
