The Ministry adopted the online system of selecting and admitting form ones this year. During this year’s admission process which started on 7th January, 2019 all learners were processed through NEMIS (National Education Management Information System). When a student arrived for admission, they presented their joining letters and verification of existences in the system was done. This same process is expected to be in play next year as the Ministry fully automates the selection process.
The Ministry of Education early this year directed all the 2019 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education, KCPE, candidates to revise their form one choices by August, 2019. This is opposed to the earlier dispensation where candidates switched schools after announcement of the KCPE results.
This year, it is only Private and Sub- County schools that were allowed to select their form one students manually. While, County, Extra County and National schools had placement of their form ones done electronically at the National Education Management Information System, NEMIS.
