President Uhuru Kenyatta’s commitment to the implementation of the new curriculum was evident yesterday when Cabinet Secretary George Magoha lauded the progress as he released the results of the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE).
The CS met the president before the event at the Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) alongside the Principal Secretary for State Department of Early Learning and Basic Education Julius Jwan.
Magoha expressed confidence on CBC progress that is now being implemented up to Grade 4. Dr Jwan was part of the technical team that midwifed the curriculum reforms.

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has assured Sosiana High School Principal, Magdalene Njoki Kimani, that the Commission won’t punish her for highlighting the challenges she faced when administering the 2020 KCSE exams.
Njoki had earlier this week, said in an interview with
Nation that she covered nearly 20 kilometres on foot daily to deliver KCPE papers to her students in Trans Mara East, Narok County.
A day later, on April 14, Education officials in Trans Mara East denied her claims, saying Njoki only covered a maximum of nine kilometres on foot daily.

You did well despite Covid-19, Uhuru tells CS Magoha over 2020 KCPE exam

The 2020 national examination was unique to the fact that it took place in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, which posed a great challenge to the Education Ministry.
The Standard reported that some examiners were unable to show up for the marking exercise due to the ongoing restriction of movement in the country.
This was as a result of the partial lockdown of some counties, while others decided not to turn up due to fears of the disease.
"When the Covid-19 pandemic befell the country in March 2020, the education sector was one that got completely disoriented," Magoha said at Mtihani House.
