Schools will open for Third Term on May 10, 2021 as scheduled, Education CS George Magoha has announced, allaying parents’ concerns since the country is still under strict Covid-19 control measures that were introduced last month by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

“I am leapfrogging forward and hoping that since it looks like the pandemic is starting to flatten, there may be no need, for now, for me to summon education stakeholders to look afresh at the timetable. It remains as we had decided earlier in the year,” Prof Magoha said today when he supervised the administration of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examinations in Kiambu County.
