Deputy Principals & Head teachers, Science Teachers
Unfortunately, KNEC failed to factor payment for Deputy Head Teachers and Deputy Principals despite the fact that their presence play vital role during examination period as assistant Centre Managers.
At the same time teachers handling science subjects walked home empty handed. These teachers are required to prepare and administer practicals during the KCSE examinations.
