Basic Education Principal Secretary Belio Kipsang has stated that during Grade 6 and 9 assessments, schools will not permit police officers to be present. Instead, police officers will solely handle the collection and delivery of examination papers.
“Police officers will not be allowed in examination centres during CBC assessments for Grades 6 and 9,” the PS said when he attended the inaugural Annual Symposium on Competency-Based Assessment.
“By the time our schools open in January we shall have availed 16,000 classrooms to accommodate Grade 9 learners. As government this is a responsibility we shall ensure is done,” Belio said.
