A total of 1,400,329 secured spots in the schools of their choice.
Similarly, all other candidates were placed in county or sub-county schools, according to the parameters set.
Learners with special needs were placed either in regular or Special Needs schools based on their disability categories, merit, and choice.
“As we reflect on the 2024 Form One placement results, it is important to remember that the choices made by the candidates themselves played a significant role in the outcome. Candidates were placed in schools largely based on merit and choice. However, a few candidates could not be placed using the above criteria and were placed in schools of equivalent standing outside their counties. This number included those from counties with inadequate capacity,” Machogu announced.
The reporting date for all 2024 Form One learners will be on January 15, 2024.
