Schools to revert to Jan-Dec calendar in 2023: Magoha

Prof Magoha made the statement on Monday when the Ministry of Education released the 2021 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results.

NAIROBI, Kenya, Mar 28 — Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha has assured the education calendrer in both primary and secondary schools will revert to running from January to December.

Prof Magoha made the statement on Monday when the Ministry of Education released the 2021 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results.

Magata Bruce Mackenzie from Gilgil Hills Academy is the top student with 428 marks followed by Momanyi Ashley Kerubo who got 427 marks.

“These are remarkable results and I congratulate the stars of the 2021 KCPE examinations,” Magoha said when he released the results.

“There is no point of denying the candidates their examination results because of fees balances because in any cause it is known that primary school education is free in the country,” he said.

He assured that examination result slips will be released to all candidates who sat for the exams, even if they have fee balances.
