A section of schools in Migori County has opposed proposals by the government to merge examination centres for schools with less than 30 learners sitting the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) exams.

Led by their headteachers and directors, the schools argued that some of the centres where they were merged are far away and will give learners a hard time sitting for the exams scheduled to start next week.
