Fred Osewe -Nakuru County Director of Education

Nakuru County Director of Education Fred Osewe has urged schools in the area to improve the mean score from 4.435 to 5.435 in 2021 KCSE results.

In an exclusive interview with Education News, Osewe hailed the schools for improving the mean score from 4.39 in 2019 to 4.435 in 2020. 

Nakuru County registered a total of 38750 candidates in 2020 for the KCSE exams and presented the highest number of absentees compared to other counties.

A total of 31 scored plain As,  782  A-   1439 B+,   2029 B plain,   3001  B-,  3995 C+, 5078 C,  5744 C-,   6479D+ ,  7732   D and 1950 E. 

Osewe said 49 schools attained a mean score of 6 and above but the Ministry has put strategies to ensure schools in the county post sterling results. 

He said it is the mandate of schools to cover the syllabus on time to allow time for revision.

Schools joint engagement is going on to ensure that top schools gauge the preparedness of their learners, an exercise that is also extended to smaller schools in the county.

He also said the Covid -19 holiday severely restricted learning although most schools engaged their students in online classes hence improving the performance.
