Nyambaria High School is on the news again. The high school says that it has produced 12 As the 2023 KCSE. This has been revealed by the school’s deputy principal Onesmus Ong’uti.
“We had registered 594 candidates. We released the top 12 who had As to the media. Our teachers are not yet done with tallying, but we believe that there will be more because these are provisional results,” said Ong’uti.
“We were expecting that our candidate would be the top student, and I want to believe he could be because he has attained an A of 84 and has been the best student since Form 1. His name is John Mark Oluu,” added Ong’uti.
The results come a day after the school went viral on social media with fake grades that were purported to have been from the school. According to one set of the fake grades, the school had produced 42 A plains, 425 A minus and 56 B plus.
In the previous 2022 KCSE results, the school had a mean score of 10.8975.
The results of the school have been widely anticipated following incidents that occurred during the examinations.
During the exams, the principal of Nyambaria High School Charles Onyari was suspended as the Centre Manager by the Teacher’s Service Commission following a recommendation from the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC).
Onyari was reported to have only been suspended as the centre manager but not as the school principal.
According to a report that appeared in the media, he was accused of facilitating examination irregularities at the school.
A few days later, students at Nyambaria High School chased away KNEC exam officials over what they termed as harassment.
The students alleged that they were being harassed by KNEC officials who had been deployed to oversee the examinations at the school for what was being seen as their involvement in exam cheating.
“There is a problem there and we are dealing with it. The students chased away some officials from the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC),” a detective was quoted by local media.
KCSE Results: 446,143 score between D Plus and D Minus
Nyambaria High School first shocked the country last year when it posted a mean score of 10.8975 in the 2022 KCSE. In the KCSE 2021 the school had a mean score of 9.3086.
