Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate how the biological science curriculum was being implemented at the secondary school level in Kenya under the 8-4-4 system of education. In this study, the case method was used to investigate implementation in two secondary schools in Baringo district, Kenya. Data were collected using observation, interviews, questionnaires, and audio recordings.<br>Implementation standards were found to be rather low because of a number of factors. The general laboratories in the two schools of the study were poorly equipped, and textbooks available to students were

Abstract:
In recent years, a number of secondary schools in the Kirinyaga district of Central Province of Kenya have experienced riots and boycotts. The major objective of this study was to understand why students disrupt the normal processes of schooling. Students' perceptions were obtained by examining their attitudes, ideas, opinions, morals, and myths about these uprisings. The study was phenomenological in nature and was informed by the symbolic interactionism (Bogdan & Biklen, 1992). Data were collected from six diverse secondary schools: three all boys schools, two all girls schools, and one co-e

One of the key responses to the HIV/AIDS crisis has been the provision of School- based HIV/AIDS education, to try and improve teenagers’ ability to make wise and sensible decisions regarding their behaviours.

An important part of this process has been the development of an education sector policy on HIV and AIDS, aimed at imple
