That said, our style of announcing the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and KCSE results leave much to be desired. High unemployment rates are attributed to the poor colonial education system that we adopted, which is regarded as elitist, academically oriented and less practical/technical. The government needs to consider holistically reforming the education system if we are to focus on skills development. Primary school education should focus on setting a solid foundation or building blocks for the child’s education. Finally, the government as a matter of policy must reconsider the cost of our primary system of education.
