Some 33,984 students from 2,673 schools are at the mercy of the government as Form One selection results were released yesterday.
The learners, some of whom scored highly in last year's Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exam, had failed to select schools of choice for placement.
Even as the government promised to give them opportunity in public schools, Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu blamed parents and teachers for failing to give proper guidance to learners during schools selection.
