In January 2017, Education CS promised a Purely Form One Selection 2018
Students will also access their admission letters through links on the websites of their respective secondary schools.
“I challenge all secondary schools to ensure they have functional websites to enhance public access to information,” said Education CS Fred Matiang’i.
This year, however, the Ministry of Education will still send out admission letters in hard copy, a process that will run concurrently with the online access being piloted for some national schools.
“It is my expectation that in subsequent selections, transmittal of admission letters for all categories of schools will be purely online,” he added.
