KUPPET questions 2023 Form One Placement; Demands Answers from Machogu.
KUPPET questions 2023 Form One placement: The Kenya union of post primary teachers, has raised questions regarding the just completed form one placement.
The union secretary general Akelo Misori has called upon Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu to correct the alleged mess that has occurred in the form one students selection, citing that several parents are now demoralised with the process.
Misori was speaking at Karachuonyo, where he lamented that the whole placement process was flawed and it requires rectification, to enable students be admitted to schools of their choice.
The secretary general revealed that they have received overwhelming complaints from parents of the affected KCPE candidates over the messes surrounding the selection process.
For instance, Misori outlined thatvmost students have been placed to schools that they didn’t choose, while others have been placed to distance day schools, a move that will definitely be a barrier to them joining form one next year.
On the other hand, he called upon the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to employ sufficient teachers in Junior Secondary schools, citing that they are understaffed, compromising the quality of education.
Notably, he asked the ministry to address Junior Secondary schools infrastructural challenges that are interfering with learning.
