The Commissioner attributed the success to the upholding of dignity by centre Managers, Supervisors, and Invigilators, who conducted themselves with high decorum throughout the examination process.
The Commissioner revealed that Homa Bay County presented a total of 75,955 candidates in both KPSEA and KJSEA, noting that this was higher than last year.
He asked the candidates to conduct themselves well during the long December holiday by helping their parents run family errands without sacrificing their time for studies.
He lauded the Competency-Based Curriculum because it encourages competencies among learners and places them naturally where they suit best, rather than the defunct 8.4.4 system that emphasised mere memorisation of content.
