📢 PARENT SURVEY ON GRADE 10 PLACEMENT UNDER CBE (KENYA)

Dear Parent/Guardian,

I got an opportunity to present a paper on career pathway selection and Senior School placement under Kenya’s Competency-Based Education (CBE) framework.

The paper will focus on:
✍🏾How learners selected their career pathways.
✍🏾The level of learner and parental involvement
✍🏾The level of parental understanding of CBE
✍🏾Parental experiences with the 2026 Grade 10 placement process
✍🏾How fairness and equity in placement can be strengthened.

Your experience as a parent is extremely valuable in helping me present content that reflects the state of the matter as well as inform the concerned authorities on improving policy on career pathway selection and school placement practices.

🕒 The survey takes about 7–10 minutes to complete.

🔒 All responses are anonymous and confidential.

🎓 The data will be used strictly for the presentation during the conference to bring out the real experiences in the recently concluded G10 placement.

Please feel free to share this link with other parents of Grade 9/10 learners.

Thank you for contributing to research that aims to strengthen equitable implementation of CBE in Kenya.

📢 PARENTS, ARE YOU CONFUSED BY THE NEW CBE SYSTEM?

You’re not alone.

Many parents are:
❌ Worried of their child career pathway.
❌ Unsure how to help with projects.
❌ Worried of the best subjects that will secure their children the best career pathway.
❌ Feeling left out of their child’s education.

The truth is:
👉 CBE requires informed parents—not silent observers.

🎤That’s why I’m introducing the:

CBE Parent Literacy Program; A practical, parent-friendly program designed to help you:

✅ Understand how your child learns under CBE

✅ Know your exact role—without stress or guesswork

✅ Support learning at home without doing the work for them

✅ Prepare your child for the right career pathway, life, and the future.

🎯 This is not a teaching course.

🎯 It is a clarity and empowerment program for parents.

Why do naturally talented people frequently fail to reach their potential while other far less gifted individuals go on to achieve amazing things?

At Saita Academic Mentors we believe the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent but a passionate persistence.

Dear parents, despite the prolonged holiday, let us ensure children are covering the right syllabus while at home.

Dear parents, how is your child doing their revision at home? Please make sure they are not just busy with books and when schools reopen they are as empty as pouring water into a bucket with holes 😔😔😔

The level of content retention from a given study session is determined by the effectiveness of the study strategy utilized. In as much as there are numerous study methods, students vary in their knowledge of them and the effective utilization for meaningful revision. The majority of learners either overly utilize ineffective study strategies (which is very common), while unknowingly under-using the effective study strategies. Others use effective study strategies incorrectly or inconsistently because efficient study strategies will in most cases look like they are time consuming. Learners want that quick fix study method that saves them for the upcoming exam which they have not been preparing for. This is why the majority will memorize answers for the exam but unfortunately the memorized content escapes their memory at a speed of higher momentum than it entered.

If your child does not understand the science behind the learning process and the forgetting curve as outlined by one of the best renowned Learning Psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus, the book SIDE MIRROR TO SUCCESS, is a good read for them.
