President William Ruto today joined candidates at Kikuyu Township Primary School in Kiambu County to oversee the opening of examination materials for Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) exams.
President Ruto told the candidates that the government has created a conducive environment to ensure a seamless transition into the next education levels.
“As our children begin their exams, we pray for their success. We are with them in this journey; we have provided enough space for their progress in education,” he stated.
He also prayed for the candidates.
The National Examinations started across the country, with security being strengthened in every distribution center.
The KCPE examinations will mark the end of the 8-4-4 education system in primary schools.
The head of state was accompanied by Education CS Ezekiel Machogu, Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi, Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah and other leaders.
