New minimum requirements and universities offering education degree courses
It will now not be easy for you to pursue a degree in education without meeting set minimum grades in Mathematics and English. According to the requirements from the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS), a candidate must have to score at-least a C (plain) in English to undertake any teaching degree programme. This is in addition to the minimum cluster points set by respective universities.
A student will also have to score a minimum of a D+ (plus) in Mathematics so as to be admitted to a Bachelor of Education (Arts) course. Those seeking to be science teachers must score a minimum of a C (plain) in Mathematics and a C+ (plus) in any of the Sciences offered at high school.
The above requirements will lock out many Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) graduates intending to pursue teaching related courses.

I want to do ecde how can i get an admission letter
I had a minimum grade of C+ , English C+, kiswahili C and the 2 teaching subjects B- and above,,which is mathematics and geography,,,am interested in doing education but the cut off point are below the expected,,help me plz
I want to be urinologist in future which grade am I supposed to get in my kcse
Hello need to know the qualifications for degree in early childhood education and primary option
My passion has been in teaching all along but my big worry is that my mathematics is the big problem because I failed and l feel this is robbing me off my future career my humble request was that those concerned with education should see a way to help those who have the mean grade and the two teaching subjects and have failed mathematics only ….l did mt KCSE in 2009 scored c+ l got the pass to the two teaching subjects but mathematics l had D- help me please
I had D plain and i was intrested on taking Education arts what can i do?
I have a B minus and I wished to be history &CRE teacher what are requirement.subjects maths C minus, English C minus, history B plus, CRE B plus, Kiswahili B plus, Agriculture B plus, Chemistry C plus & Biology C plus
This has helped me thanks
Those students who wish to pursue Education Arts need be allowed to do with D plain also…
if not the System need to give provision of Bridging Mathematics. Its unfair to lock the students out of their field of interest.
I had a minimum grade of c+ , mathematics c+ but I failed in English and I want to pursue education plz help me can I qualify
In this field only one language should be considered and two teaching subject that is Eng\Kiswahili have a C plus because not everyone is able to pass the two languages and doing that it will favour many.Thank you.
