Kenya's new school system placed thousands in Grade 10 without input, causing unrest.
Kenya’s rollout of its new senior school system has sparked nationwide frustration as thousands of students were placed in Grade 10 schools without their or their parents’ input.
The Ministry of Education used a formula based on population, poverty, geography, and income to distribute placements equitably, but exact criteria remain undisclosed.
Over 5,000 senior secondary schools received no student choices yet were assigned learners, and some students were sent far from home—like a Nairobi pupil placed in Kisii County—increasing costs and stress.
Critics say the process lacked transparency, ignored student preferences, and failed to consult parents, undermining equity and trust in the system.
