Education CS wants fresh data on all schools, learners

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

Education Cabinet Secretary Prof George Magoha has directed that his office be furnished with accurate data on number of schools and learners. Through a circular dated December 10, 2019, the CS notes that the actual number of all schools in the country is not known.

“It has come to my attention that the State Department of Early Learning and Basic Education does not maintain accurate and reliable database on the number of physical schools and the actual number of pupils that can be relied on for effective decision making,” says CS Magoha.

According to the CS, lack of accurate information has hampered effective service delivery in the Education Sector. He has thus directed all County Directors of Education to urgently compile data on the actual number of pupils in grade two (2) to eight (8). Also to be collated is data on the physical number of schools; both secondary and primary schools. “This information should reach this office (the Education Headquarters at Jogoo House; Nairobi) by Monday December 23, 2019,” the CS directs.

Schools are always expected to update the data on all learners and employees on the Ministry’s portal; National Education Management Information System (NEMIS). But, some schools may be having incomplete data. Data captured on NEMIS is used for disbursement of government fee capitation among other functions.

The CS now warns that schools with incorrect data will miss out on Fees Capitation and other government services. “This information is required for 2020 capitation and other critical decisions. It is reiterated that no institution shall receive capitation or any other Ministerial service without this data,” warns the CS.

Early this year, a number of schools missed capitation due to inaccurate data on NEMIS. The Ministry had to surcharge institutions that had exaggerated their learners’ populations.

All learners in public secondary schools receive government capitation of Sh22,244 per year. The Government disburses the capitation money on a ratio of 50 per cent for first term, 30 per cent in the second and 20 per cent for third term.

Schools’ reopening fate to be announced next week

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

National Covid-19 Education Response Committee winded up the exercise of collecting views from Kenyans on Friday evening. The week long exercise saw the committee receive various proposals from about 3,000 individuals and groups on how learning institutions should be reopened.

The committee will be writing a report advising the cabinet secretary on how best to reopen basic education institutions, review and reorganize the academic calendar among other tasks.

PROPOSALS SUBMITTED TO THE COMMITTEE BY VARIOUS STAKE HOLDERS

A section of stake holders have been irked by a proposal by secondary school teachers’ representatives to have part of the learners back to school next month. The groups including the Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut), Universities Academic Staff Union (UASU) and Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) in a statement this past week said proposal by Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) to partially reopen schools in June was ‘ill advised’.

“It is insensitive, pre-emptive, foolhardy and extremely wrong for anybody outside the medical profession or without medical expertise to propose the rushed reopening of schools in the wake of coronavirus pandemic, especially at this period when the virus is on spiral, threatening survival of humanity,” the three institutions said.

“Preliminary results from a rapid response survey rolled out by the agencies indicate that the situation on the ground is different and might require more effective measures to be put in place before such an action of reopening is undertaken,” they added.

The three groups have been bitter over the move by Education Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha to exclude them from the committee tasked with coming up with proposals on how to restart learning.

And in expression of their anger, the three groups (Knut, KHRC and Kuppet) did not make their proposals to the constituted committee was just ‘a mere rubberstamp considering the manner in which it was constituted’. They said caution should be taken and there should be no rushed reopening of learning institutions. The ‘rebel’ group says provision of personal protective equipment and enforcement of other containment such as hand washing, fumigation of institutions and mass testing must be mandatory before schools reopen.

“It is worth noting that countries like France, which have attempted to reopen schools witnessed a resurgence of the virus, further affecting many teachers and learners,” reads the statement.

Also read;

Primary school heads on their part want the school annual calendar revised and KCPE and KCSE exams postponed until learners are well prepared to sit the examinations.

“The National examinations should be rescheduled to later dates when candidates are adequately prepared,” reads a proposal by Kenya Primary Schools Heads association (Kepsha) presented to the national covid-19 education response committee.

Kepsha says schools should not be reopened until the pandemic curve is flattened; adding that the situation will be worse in most schools that are overcrowded and social distancing would just be a mirage.

“The covid-19 spread in the country is rising day by day. Therefore, no schools should open until the virus is fully eradicated or brought under country in the country. In Nairobi county for instance, children are congested in the classrooms with so many pupils ranging from about 70 to 110 children per classroom in most schools”. add the primary school heads via a memo signed by the national chairperson, Nicholas Gathemia.

Among other proposals, the heads say class sizes should be reduced to have between 25-30 learners in order to attain social distancing and that the government should attach healthcare personnel to cluster of schools for regular monitoring; this is if schools must be reopened soon.

The committee will now retreat to write their report which will be submitted to president Uhuru Kenyatta before being made public next week; end of May.

The country will be waiting with bated breadth ahead of release of the report.

List of transferred, delocalized Principals in Meru County; December 2019

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has effected the December 2019 delocalization exercise for school heads. A total of thirty five (35) head teachers have been moved in Meru County. The handing/ taking over exercise for the administrators is expected to be completed before schools open for first term on January 6, 2020.

Those moved are heads and principals and their deputies serving in their home counties and those who have served in the same station for a long period. Also on the move are new administrators who were appointed after the just concluded interviews .

Teachers with medical conditions have been spared from the ongoing delocalization exercise. Also spared are teachers aged above 56 years and those set to retire.

For all the latest TSC news and delocalization lists, visit;

TSC News Portal

The Commission kicked off the delocalization exercise in January, 2018. Other massive deployments would then follow in April, August and December of the same year. Though in April, 2019 the Commission slowed down the transfers as only a handful administrators were moved.

Senators push for reopening of schools in September

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

Senators now want Education Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha to rescind on his earlier plans of pushing reopening of schools to next year, 2021. According to recommendations from the Senate Education Committee, the CS should start a phased reopening of all primary and secondary schools in this year.

Chairperson of Committee on Education in the Senate, Dr. Milgo Alice Chepkorir on Tuesday, July 21, presented recommendations from the Committee in the floor of the house.

“The Education Committee recommends a phased reopening of basic education learning institutions, beginning from September, 2020. (This is) to allow a division of the classes into smaller groups,” said Senator Chepkorir.

The Committee further asks the Ministry to give priority to candidate classes (class 8 and form 4).

“Priority should be given to the national examinations classes, KCPE and KCSE, so that they can continue with syllabus coverage and prepare for examinations,” she said.

These latest recommendations come in the backdrop of increased cases of covid-19 infections in the country. The country is experiencing an unprecedented surge in daily infections.

REOPENING RECOMMENDATIONS

In pushing reopening to January, 2021, CS Magoha attributed the move to the poor state of infrastructure in schools that can not guarantee social distancing among learners.

The Senators, in their renewed push, also want first lessons for students following reopening to cover similar topics including; epidemic prevention, health care maintenance and how to respond to emergency drills.

Frequent cleaning and hand-washing (done twice in a day), Prohibition of usual morning meetings and parades, cancellation of all sporting activities and field trips are other measures proposed by the Committee.

Additionally, all members of staff (teachers and support staffs) and learners should always wear face masks while, desks and other work stations should be spaced six feet apart.

The spiraling nature of infections paints a grim picture in the proposal to have the schools reopened; considering the sorry state of facilities in most public schools that are otherwise congested.

Plans to have higher institutions of learning open their doors to students in September may be slightly hampered (at-least for now). This is after President Uhuru Kenyatta barred Cabinet secretaries from touring the country as part of efforts to curb spread of the coronavirus disease.

Uhuru’s directive comes in the light of reports that at least three Cabinet Secretaries have contracted Covid-19 and are in self-isolation. The travel ban that is set to last for two weeks will slow down activity at the Education Ministry.

CS Magoha, the Chief Administrative Secretary in the ministry of Education Ms Mumina Bonaya and the Principal Secretary for university education and research Amb. Simon Nabukwesi have been making visits to universities and colleges. The visits are meant to asses the institutions’ levels of preparedness; ahead of the September reopening dates.

The restrictions have affected other CSs like Peter Munya (Agriculture), John Munyes (Mining), James Macharia (Transport) and Eugene Wamalwa (Devolution). Upcountry trips by CSs Fred Matiang’i (Interior), Joe Mucheru (ICT), Mutahi Kagwe (Health), Ukur Yatani (National Treasury) and Adan Mohamed (Regional Integration) have also been disrupted.
