Hullabaloo for nothing.

A single investor/entrepreneur can have two or more related businesses but registered with different names. What's wrong with Makini registering two examination centres?

All this hullabaloo about top performing student/schools/bla bla is all crap to me. We put too much pressure on our children to have perfect grades and forget about what education should be about. I thank God for my parents because my siblings and I were never pressured to simply bring in good grades at whatever cost. We were taught about the value of education, learning and becoming a holistic person. Its not just about books and being number 1. Thats why many straight A students get to University and are overwhelmed by life and everything. This is because he or she always had someone standing looking over his shoulder telling them what to and drilling stuff into their minds.
I went to Limuru Girls School and we had the best girl in Central Province with us but she barely managed to get a C in the fina year examination. She could not handle the responsibility of studying and learning on her own. It is such a shame.
A good school should teach a child how to be responsible, respectful, ambitious and hard working at all levels. In deed you can achieve anything if your put your heart and soul into it. Sports, Drama, Music and whatever.
My daughter just joined class 1 this year. I made sure that I took her to a school that does not condone holiday tuition or any kind of drilling and encourages extra curriculum activities. Saturday, sunday and any other holiday is for me and her not for books and school. As much as good grades are important, we all know that this world is led by people who were not the best of the best but worked hard in achieving their dreams. Angalia akina Bill Gates, Richard Branson and so on.

true. Most parents want thheir kids to be all bright and almost without a social life which is why you find kids in boarding schools at class four. They forget people skills and general life skills which are very important in life

This is because he or she always had someone standing looking over his shoulder telling them what to and drilling stuff into their minds.
I went to Limuru Girls School and we had the best girl in Central Province with us but she barely managed to get a C in the fina year examination. She could not handle the responsibility of studying and learning on her own. It is such a shame.
A good school should teach a child how to be responsible, respectful, ambitious and hard working at all levels. In deed you can achieve anything if your put your heart and soul into it. Sports, Drama, Music and whatever.
My daughter just joined class 1 this year. I made sure that I took her to a school that does not condone holiday tuition or any kind of drilling and encourages extra curriculum activities. Saturday, sunday and any other holiday is for me and her not for books and school. As much as good grades are important, we all know that this world is led by people who were not the best of the best but worked hard in achieving their dreams. Angalia akina Bill Gates, Richard Branson and so on.

I agree with Chepkel until the point she tries to dismiss all the A student......some of us got all the clean A's huko gishagi with all the play and fun.
