There is one school where students refused to take their meals and wanted to boycott exams because of this reason.
Students refused to take meals and wanted to boycott taking midmorning exams after doing the first paper yesterday because they wanted to be assisted to cheat but the principal was against that.
The students came out of the examination room and they were rowdy. The principal told them to go and take their tea as usual during the break but they refused. She then asked them to go back to their classrooms but they also refused.
The principal consulted a friend and a fellow principal on what to do next and she was told to inform the sub county director and she did so.
The principal informed the Sub-County Director who responded immediately and took the security personnel who ensured that the learners went back to Examination room and did their midmorning paper.
It is reported that the said students threatened their subject teacher that if he will not assist them they will make him regret for the rest of his life. The students themselves had the questions they wanted answers from the teacher.
After the students forwarded the questions to the teacher, the teacher went to the principal to inform her of the same, the principal told the teacher that she will not allow him to help the girls in anyway.
