Its time we went to court to challenge this impunity. Iam willing to chip in for a "wazua" court action.

If we dont do something, the thread will cool off until late Jan 2016 when we shall start all over again.

ION, am told the exam fees waiver is only applicable to candidates in public schools. What are these people telling us about parents with candidates in private schools? SHAME!!!!!

I heard this and I was shocked!!!

These segregation/unfairness/injustices are being taken too far. Are students in private/church sponsored/NGO supported schools lesser Kenyans than the rest. Aren't their parents tax payers? What reasoning was used here. The policy makers in this country must be from utopia! This is not a favour from the government or some 'development partner'. This our bloody money!!! Too much for equality and equitability!!!

And the equalisation crew, how would paying examination fees for students in private schools - with their parents tax money! - disadvantage the students in public schools??? I heard the same will apply to laptops - if and when they finally arrive. There is only too far you can push people before they revolt! Why should I continue paying taxes for example if the government keeps doing it's best not only to deny me and my family the benefits of my hard earned cash but to ensure that we are actually at a greater disadvantage.



There is no exam fee waiver!

The government is paying KNEC the fees on behalf of pupils in its schools.

If this is to be extended to those in other schools, then there will also be a case to extend FPE funding to them as well. That is, a demand these other schools also get similar amount of funding per pupil as given to public schools.

Say what you want but with time, people will fight back. Whichever means will do.

Let me tell you something for a fact. I will not give details but let me say I have come up with something - intellectual property - that I want to sell to a foreign company. Guess how the deal will go down. I register a company in Luxembourg, Jersey, Isle of Man, Cayman Islands or Monaco. I do the deal through my offshore company and I keep all my money. Kenyan government gets nothing!!! If the government was treating me fairly and using my tax money properly, I would feel guilty doing such a thing. Now? Take a guess!

just do it, either way even if you bring your cash hapa it will only benefit the rich. smile

A system APPARENTLY designed to benefit the poor, takes from the upper middle class, lower middle class and the poor themselves and gives it to the super rich!!!

Believe you me, these is how the "vacancies" are auctioned at those fancy National and (Former) Provincial schools.

1) Those with Money AND Influence (Politicians, Industry "captains", their friends and relatives etc.)

2) Those with pictures of the headmaster/headmistress of their target school in a compromising position with a woman/man who is not their wife/husband.

3) Those with money only. Lots of it.

4) Those with money but ni watu waku bargain.

5) Everyone else.

Word of advice, hire @mawinder NOW to get you pictures of the headmaster/headmistress of your target school in a compromising position and your kid will get admitted even before they sit for K.C.P.E.!!!

Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

The one's for headmistresses work like magic!!!

And if the headmistress/headmaster is as straight as an arrow, at an extra cost, @mawinder can engineer the situation. It will cost you much more for headmistresses because they are harder to confuse than headmasters. For headmasters you just need a drop dead beauty, some Faxe (or even whitecap), a couple of cameras, a headmasters retreat (somewhere at the coast) and voila!!! Mpaka video utapata!!! He he he.

It's all for the kids.

If your son scored above 370 marks go and try to request for a vacancy at Kapsabet Boys High School. I was there some 8 years ago, and the school converts average students to extremely good performers. Last year KCSE almost everyone scored a B+ and above, which placed them at position 4 overall! They have a special class for the average students where they are given extra tuition to match the students who joined with higher marks. Kindly try this school because its location is remote and the boys there are very disciplined! No gaysm, no drugs and no funny funny behaviors.
Enjoy every moment of your life, you never know when your time will come.

If that is where they taught you to say "overally", don't you think you should be advising us to keep our kids as far as possible from that school???

He he he. Just messing with you. Overally!
