The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education last week slammed the parents for paying Form One entrance examination fees saying they did that at their own peril as the Government has set an enrolment date for all the schools in the country. He said the entrance exams were banned long back by his ministry and have remained illegal and should not be left to continue. Enrolment of Form One students for next year started yesterday with parents expected to use their children's Grade Seven results.

The Kenyan Minister of Education has asked all education stakeholders to report any forms of malpractice in the ongoing "Form One" replacement exercise. The Minister stated that all admission letters are released to students free of charge and therefore parents/guardians should not be duped into parting with presents, tokens and appreciation or inducements to receive these letters.
