The ongoing routine transfer of Principals and other teachers in the country has affected secondary school principals in Kisii and Nyamira counties.
In the recent development, the Chief Principal of Suneka High School, Mr. Masiwo, was transferred toTom Mboya High School in Homabay County.
Kisii County Director of Education, Mr. Pius Ngoma, confirmed the transfer but did not name the replacement of the transferred Principal.
In Nyamira County, the long serving Principal of Kebirigo High School, Dr.Wara, was also transferred to a school yet to be revealed.
When he was contacted he only responded in one sentence.
“It is true I have been transferred at the time I expected least,” he said.
The principal, who had just handed in the registration and nominal role of the 2022 KCSE candidate to the education offices for certification, wished the school to continue well with the steering performance whose base he set.
He left the school after leading his 311 candidates to excel to University with direct entry grades except one who scored C plain.
The results were tabulated with 13 students getting A-, 107 B+ , 127 B plain, 50 B- and 13 candidate scored C+ and only one student attained C plain.
The school attained a mean score of 9.2, two points up from the 2020 examination results.
Nyamira County Director of Education, Mr. Borniface Ouko, confirmed the transfer terming it a normal and professional requirement that empowered the TCS in conjunction with the Ministry of Education to effect the inevitable changes.
