Parents may now find out which secondary schools their children who sat the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education exams in 2023 have been selected to.

The students are expected to be enrolled in form one early next year.

Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu announced results of a two-week placement exercise at Lenana School in Nairobi on Monday morning.

While presiding over the announcement of the 2024 form placement, Machogu stated that parents should obtain the letters directly from the Ministry of Education website.

He stated that once on the ministry website, one should search for Form One Placement to acquire the results.

Additionally, one can learn about their placement by visiting the Kenya Education Management Information System (KEMIS) at http://kemis.education.go.ke/.

“I assure Kenyans that this website has been tested and proven and is 100% accurate. It is in operation,” he said. 

According to Machogu, the school selections made by the students were utilized in the placement process, along with other factors.

“Some students were placed in schools of equivalent standing outside their counties. This includes those from counties with inadequate capacity,” the CS said. 

As a result of insufficient capacity, a student can ultimately end up attending secondary school in another county.

Furthermore, Machogu assured parents that there will be no cost increases when their children join secondary school the next year.

“ The government is commitment to providing free day secondary education which includes allocation for tuition and operation expenses. The fees charged in secondary schools will remain unchanged in 2024. Schools will continue to receive funds based on accurate enrolment data,” said Machogu.
