It's a transgenerational tragedy! Most African teachers perform worse than developed world kids when they are tested on kids exam. The exception is kenya. Imagine when they tested Zanzibar teachers - they scored 50% - and they are suppose to teach!. Kenya teachers core 95% or about. Meanwhile the average developed world teacher has masters - especially in places like Finland and such. Africa has to rethink their priorities - teachers and doctors should be highly paid and highly respected - and we should insist on teachers with highest possible education teaching our kids - and pay them well. For example we can slowly require all primary teachers to have bachelors degree - and all high school to have master degrees - and all higher education to have PHD. Look at South Africa - stuck in middle class rut - now overtaken by Egypt - and has no great future ahead because it's education outcomes are such that it cannot produce highly skilled labour their economy requires to shift gears and accelerate their development. Now they are stuck in gear 2. kikuyu1:

The mad man spend inordinate amount of energy generating BS - he could help Ghana generate electricity and avoid the DUMSOR. popizaino: |
Alliance is not international school. It part of kenya nationals school - very bright kids from poor background like that Maasai are admitted if they score very high marks in KCPE. Definitely Alliance High School graduate will take any Tanzania round in so many circles. That kid you see is studying Engineering...the TZ kid who looks bi-racial definitely cannot smell that boy in academic ![]() Alliance is definitely one of the greatest school (actually THE GREATEST HIGH SCHOOL) in kenya with huge history - and most kenya leaders are product of the Alliance.

The only thing in dispute here is your sanity. It either drugs or clinical mental illness. Just30: |
It not in Northland city ![]() Northland city is across thika road. Kenyatta university main campus measures 524 in your deranged mind ![]() Kenyatta university is city in itself ![]() Just30: |
My friend - nobody trust anything you saw or draw - you're wasting time. You have the credibility of a Nigeria International ashawo claiming to be a virgin ![]() You just declare the entire Legon - the University of Ghana property ![]() Post a credible link like I have done. Just30: |
JKUAT - main campus - unknown - also bought from Kenyatta family. Recently they added 720 acres more. |
Egerton University - 1,100+740 acres in the Main Campus. Named after British settler Lord Egerton who donated the land. it was established by a large land grant of 740 acres (3 km²) by Maurice Egerton, 4th Baron Egerton of Tatton. The school's original purpose was to prepare white European youth for careers in agriculture.[6] By 1955, the name had changed to Egerton Agricultural College. A one-year certificate course and a two-year diploma course in agriculture were offered. In 1958, Lord Egerton donated another 1,100 acres (4.5 km2) of land. |
Let go to next - Moi university - main campus alone sit on 3,000 acres. https://www.mu.ac.ke/index.php/81-demo-contents/all-course/90-modern-language-degrees From here, Moi University moved to Kesses to sit on 3,000 acres of land |
Let start from Kenyatta university. 1) Main campus sit on OVER 1,000 acres - it was bought from Kenyatta family (who own 10,000 acres adjacent to it - Northland city) The Main campus is situated on a beautiful and serene 1,300 acres piece of land. http://www.ku.ac.ke/index.php/about-ku/ku-profile The University's Main Campus is set on over 1,000 acres with a pleasant and serene surrounding conducive to academic and intellectual growth. 2) Kitua campus - 500 acres - http://ku.ac.ke/campuses/kitui/ http://ku.ac.ke/campuses/kitui/ he campus can be accessed by either the Nairobi-Machakos- Kitui road or Nairobi –Thika- Kitui road. The facility is built on a 500-acre land with red volcanic soils Let me stop there ![]() Just30: |
Look at this idiot - how do you know the boundaries of Kenyatta university. Just30: |
125 hectares - what hell is that - Kenya universites - sit on 2,000 to 5,000 acres ![]() For example -The main campus of Kenyatta University sitting at over 1000 acres is at Kahawa, Nairobi County in Kasarani Constituency, approximately 18 kilometres from Nairobi Just30: |
UON has more than 10 Campuses. It has 3 towers in Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu. Kenya big universities have student population of 80-100K That is like the entire university population of Ghana. You cannot compare university infrastructure of university with 80K with one with 10K university students. Heck Nairobi still has to rent a lot of building. UON student population in 2015 -98,713 Ghana - 37,940 - WOULD STRUGGLE TO GET TO TOP 10 IN STUDENT Enrollemt in Kenya Just30: |
Look like a high school to me or even a primary school. Nearly all Kenya major universities have 20 floors tall towers. Tall than anything in the entire Ghana. More like this - the infrastructure in Ghana universities would pass for high school https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SviV2M9yKG0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b9qpzFzlrk&t=17s Just30: |

First replace the many iron-sheet roofed shacks in Abuja - and then compare yourself to say Kisumu. Nairobi is on another level. Just watch this video - and go look at your Shit.ty Abuja for comparison. Do you see any iron sheet roofed house in that whole district https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3NIgWNh1Vs Kuruptnigga: |
Precisely. It almost embarrassing to be here - the level of the intellectual discourse from the west Africans, Tanzanians and the rest is particularly appalling. I have participated in many kenya forums - and frankly this kind of mental retardation doesn't exit. Yes, majority of these countries are still stuck with Brits system of education - even if it doesn't work. And you wonder why these nations despite all the incredible minerals and natural resources remain at the bottom of development. One of them is literally named gold coast - and yet look so whack you'd not imagine they literally mine gold from the surface, oil, aluminum, tin and have great rivers flowing through it. The greatest denominator of success in life is EDUCATION - and it ought to receive the greatest investment. But look at Nigeria for example - the number of kids out of school is staggering, those in schools can barely read or write, just like the average Ghana or Tanzania kid. kikuyu1: |
Just imagine! My own kid was late talker - she spoke when she was 3yrs - and they could not let her go to nursery (PP1 now) - coz she was not there in reading and writting skills! Well she had Einstein syndrome, quickly caught up, and jumped class. I cannot imagine a 4yr old kid in kenya who cannot read or write in English. They will have trouble going to Pre-Primary II - But by time you're getting to grade 1 - in KENYA YOURE SUPPOSE TO READ ON YOUR OWN - YOU GET OWN TEXTBOOK AND FOLLOW THE TEACHER. By Grade 2 - you're writing an essay. But generally it come at heavy price - before I transferred my kids to international school - they had to be in school by six AM. Kenyan school is way too much. We read and went to school - all days including even sundays. High school were absolutely the worse - if we got 5 hours of sleep - we would be the happiest! During our time in 90s - in primary school - I use to carry 25 books - and I think we did nearly 20 subjects on anything on earth!Really we have to grateful that despite Moi well known failings he had love for education and really focused on kenyans getting the best education. That laid the foundation. Turkana kids were beating us in 1990s. kikuyu1: |
For starters, learn how to use paragraphs. This they should teach you in lower primary. Secondly, let me help you in another fact behind kenya high education - the quality of our teachers. As you've seen kenya teachers score the highest in the assessment - generally getting 98 percent when they sit kids exams. There are many reason including the fact that of 100k plus PRIMARY school teachers - more than 20K are graduates - and many are in school earning degrees. Those are primary school teachers. About 1 out 5 has a degree! The rest have teachers training diplomas! Just30: |
If the English we have seen from Ghanians here is anything to go by Let me just laugh. Imagine you're the best in the horrible bunch. Vax writes like a grade 1 kid. You'd be taken to grade 2 in Kenya and the rest of the bunch to I shudder to think we are probably dealing with Ghanian creme dela creme - university graduates!! Just30: |
90% of your grade 2 kids cannot read a SINGLE WORD In passage! That is why you have come BOTTOM in all the assessment done so far. Kenya education is an envy to many middle class countries. Look at South Africans trying to figure the kenyan education magic https://theconversation.com/active-citizens-for-better-schooling-what-kenyas-history-can-teach-south-africa-92534 As for final secondary exam - Kenya Gov - is just intentionally failing kids to stop a lot of graduates without enough white collar jobs. We had far too many university kids for our level of development .Our focus is TIVET. Just30: |
Kenya pre-schools beat Ghana grade 2 kids senseless PP1 - is 4yr old. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9oCn298quY |
Kenya Pre-school - PP1 - these are 4 yr old - just after nursery. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KALeoFlVBGw |
Kenya pre-school - PP2 - Pre-School 2 - last class before they go to grade 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vi4W5GsEt8 |
Now because you heard Kenya pre-schoolers can read - you've turned from Grade 2 - not reading to 3yr old kid reading. Okay 1yr old Kenyan kids can read in Latin ![]() Little school yard prank Ghana kids are born speaking mandrain.This is how your undeveloped brain really works - like a Kenyan pre-schooler. Kenyans I tell you take education very very seriously. I would say as much as Chinese and Indians do. Just30: |
HOLY COW - Ghana just experimenting with pre-school ![]() The government has tested Ghana's children as they move on to elementary school and has found that the preschool boom is not fulfilling its promise. To cite just one statistic, among second-graders tested in city schools, one-third could not read a single word of a simple story. The results on basic arithmetic questions are similarly disappointing. https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2018/06/19/613655788/when-it-comes-to-preschool-does-father-really-know-best |
![]() Kiswahili - JESUS the pope has really messed you- Kenya pre-school - kids can read and write in 3 languages or more. By time you're in GRADE 1 and Grade 2 - what hell have you been doing in PRE- SCHOOLJust30: |
Rural kids in kenya have as good if not better education than urban kids. Kenyans take EDUCATION very seriously. Pre-school kids in some schools are in class by 6 AM. It generally expected that 4 yr old should be able to read and write - and speak English. It just not possible to get to Pre-Primary - last grade0 ( there is baby class, nursery/junior pre-school, the pre-premary) without being able to read. Leave alone GRADE 1 Just30: |
