Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba announced that the transition rate from Grade 9 to Grade 10 currently stands at 75 percent, with mop-up efforts underway to achieve 100 percent. The government has threatened to close schools that fail to admit students into Grade 10 due to low enrolment complaints. This initiative was announced by Education Cabinet Secretary Migos Ogamba. CS Julius Ogamba also announced the government will equip and devolve high-performing schools to counties. This aims to address nationwide placement shortages, reduce congestion in national schools, and improve access to quality education closer to communities.
