Public schools produced top candidates in the 2020 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exams whose results were released yesterday.
Only five candidates from private schools made it to the top 15 bracket nationally as public schools marked a major comeback to dominate national exams.
And girls performed better than boys in the exams done under difficult circumstances following prolonged closure of schools and restrictions occasioned by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The results are a major shift from previous years where private schools dominated the exams.
