Rachuonyo: The Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) 2024 exams commenced smoothly in Rachuonyo Sub-County. The Sub-County director of education, Julius Opondo, stated that the government was committed to delivering credible exams. However, Opondo noted a school bus ferrying centre managers got stuck on the roads Monday evening, causing a slight delay in the delivery of student answer scripts at the container.According to Kenya News Agency, by 6:45 p.m., some scripts had not reached the exam container from about five exam centres. Additionally, heavy rain accompanied by stormy wind had hit the area at around 3:30 p.m., affecting some roads. The Director mentioned that a section of the road in the interior part of the sub-county, near Dol centre, was also impassable."We dispatched a standby vehicle and ensured the centre managers and the answer scripts arrived safely at the container," he said. Rachuonyo Sub-County has a total of 35 public secondary schools with 3,538 candidates, including 1,588 boys and 1,680 girls, who are sitting for the KCSE exam this year. "We also have 7 private secondary schools with a total of 311 students comprised of 123 boys and 188 girls," Opondo added.
