PS Bitok Orders Suspension of Second-Term Exams Linked to Student Unrest

The Ministry of Education has ordered schools to suspend any second-term exams that could lead to student unrest. This follows a tragic fire at Utumishi Girls High School, where moving exams forward to June 2 reportedly sparked discontent among Form Four students. Principal Secretary Julius Bitok directed principals to stop any exams that could cause anger or disappointment, stressing the need to reduce tensions.
