Deputy Principal and Head Teacher, Science Teacher
Unfortunately, KNEC failed to pay for the Deputy Head Teachers and Deputy Principals despite the fact that their attendance plays an important role during the exam period as Assistant Center Managers.
At the same time, the teachers handling the science subjects went home empty handed.
These teachers are required to do practical preparation and administration during the KCSE examinations.
