The Kisii County Education Board will continue supporting the good performing principals and their schools in the national examinations.
The board chairman Dr. Henry Onderi has said some principals have stayed in the same institutions without bringing any impact and called for their immediate professional advice.
He praised those whose institutions performed well in the national examinations and in the extracurricular activities.
Onderi asked them to set base for their counterparts by inviting them for benchmarking in their schools.
He was addressing parents, teachers, students and other education stakeholders at Hema Chitago secondary school Nyaribari Masaba during this year’s prize giving day.
He said most schools in the county performed dismally in the last year’s form four examinations ruling out claims by some principals that their schools were understaffed.
The chairman called upon the director of education in the area Dr. William Sugut to implement the decision his board reached on the joining of under enrolled schools to those that have enough student population to ease the understaffing situation in the secondary schools.
The principal of Hema Chitago secondary school Julius Keng’iti revealed the secret behind the consecutive posting of good results in the past four years.
He cited intrinsic motivation of teachers as it trickled down to the students.
Keng’iti said that this year they are expecting to take more than 120 students to university.
