What you need to know:

  • Maseno School, from the same county, continued its dominance by posting a mean score of 9.543.
  • Maranda High School, a boys national school, managed a mean score of 9.5, stamping its authority as the academic giants of Siaya County
  • Asumbi Girls High School posted a mean grade of 8.36, also showing why it is among the few national schools in Nyanza.
  • Kisii High, Cardinal Otunga Mosocho and Nyabururu Girls led the pack of schools whose candidates posted stellar performances in the national tests.

The usual academic giants from Nyanza continued to stamp their authority as the dominant schools after they posted sterling results in the just released Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations.

The results also saw some of the schools that have been referred to as sleeping giants re-emerge to take their places among the top performing schools not only in the region, but also in the country.
