he Pandemic has left schools with a pool of unanswered equations worldwide. In The Country of Kenya, when schools had to resort to remote learning, some were more fortunate than others. Some students were able to access online classes and somewhere left with no options. To keep fear of space for the students who have been affected by these conditions.

Education officials announced The year would be dropped, and all students will have to repeat the academic school year. The announcement was made in July, and Kenyan students are expected to report back for school at the beginning of July. Kenyan education experts assume it will widen these already-existing gaps between the privileged and the less fortunate. Once schools resume, the two sets of students will not be on the equivalent level or able to compete fairly in national exams

Many students expecting to finish school this year are not happy about this decision but can not do anything about the matter.

Many students expecting to finish school this year are not happy about this decision but can not do anything about the matter.

NAIROBI Adhiambo, a student who believed she would graduate this year, is in profound devastation about the matter. She was anticipating completing high school so that she may register to a university. She is in haste to get a job to help her single mother, who runs a small tailoring business. Johnian Njue, a 10th-grader who lives in Nairobi, but attends a public boarding school in Kwale, 7 hours away, deals with unreliable electricity and no telephone, textbooks, or internet back home. This resulted in him not being able to access the lineup for online learning. He states he would like to be done with school already.

Verisiah, an 11-year-old who attends privet school, said that even though she misses in-person classes, she enjoys studying at home, being with her parents. She’s is grateful for the time spent with her parents since they often travel for work and are now working from home. Even though she enjoys remote learning, she misses the feeling of a real classroom. This experience inspired her to write books of stories about an 11-year-old’s experiences during the Pandemic.

“I have been studying and working hard,”

Verisiah expressed. “I don’t want to repeat classes.”

After the government eliminated the rest of the school year, some private schools resumed holding online classes and charging tuition. The money helped staff stay afloat and afford to pay rent and the salaries of tens of thousands of teachers, cooks, librarians, and lab technicians.

Some parents who have children enrolled in private schools aren’t waiting for the government to reopen schools next year. Some are contemplating moving their children to British, French, and other private schools in Kenya, which still plan to give their students foreign-standardized tests at the end of this academic year. Students who pass those tests can advance to the next grade, while students who were supposed to take the Kenyan tests, which are now will be left behind.
