The exams of children are to start soon. I know you’ll are really anxious for your child to do well but please do remember, amongst the students who will give the exams is an artist who doesn’t need to understand Math. There’s an entrepreneur who doesn’t care about History or English literature. There’s a musician whose Chemistry marks won’t matter.
There’s a sportsperson whose physical fitness is more important than Physics. If your child does get top marks then great. But if he or she doesn’t then don’t take away their self confidence from them. Tell them it’s ok, it’s just an exam. They are cut out for much bigger things in life. Tell them, no matter what they score you love them and will not judge them.
Please do this and if you do, watch your children conquer the world. One exam or a 90 percent won’t take away their dreams and talent.
The Kenyan Education system is a Big, Bad Joke.

And this after years of being ridiculed by the Teachers themselves for being thicker than a Plank!

Academic inability is Not a Disability. Opportunities Reside on many Avenues in the World and Life we Live in. Teach the Kids the Skills they Need to seek Opportunities and Encourage Them Along the way so that they Gain Confidence in themselves.
