NAIROBI: Recent reports that the Ministry of Education and the Kenya Private Schools Association (KPSA) had agreed on non-discriminatory Form One admission criteria are welcome.
According to the report, 700,000 of the 937,467 candidates who sat the 2015 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) examinations will be admitted to public schools.
The admission will be based on merit, quota system, equity, affirmative action and the choices that the learners made during their selection of preferred schools. This should be the Government policy in admission at any level of education.
