First stated by the Ministry, the new classification of schools included.
- humanities and arts schools
- creative arts and sports schoolsd
- STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) centers
The highlighted post did, however, indicate that national schools will be labeled as STEM centers.
Additionally county schools would be classified as centers for sports and the creative arts.
The fabricated post further claimed that county schools would become humanities and arts institutions.
“The information provided within is erroneous. “Ignore the unwanted cues,” the Ministry of Education declared.
Following social media uproar over concerned Kenyans’ doubts about the tales’ authenticity, the Ministry updated the content.
When fake information appeared more legitimate to social media users by using a well-known media outlet’s logo, they started to wonder about it.
Ps Belio Kipsang gives direction
On April 25, this year, senior secretary for education Belio Kipsang announced that the national categorization system for schools was going to be phased out by the government.
Kipsang declared that the ministry would no longer categorize schools into.
- national
- extra-county
- county
- sub-county
This categories during his speech at the Innagural Annual Symposium on Competency-Based Assessment.
According to the PS, senior schools are determined by the combination of topics offered in an institution, with the infrastructure of the institution serving as the main foundation for classification.
Because of their better facilities, national schools would teach STEM subjects, while the sub-county was better suited to teach a variety of subjects.
