Science Report
The realization of vision 2030 by Kenya is dependent on how we embrace technology and science, since technology is the driving force towards the realization of this objective. In order to keep abreast with the emerging educational trends, the teachers often attend seminars, workshops and symposia whenever it is appropriate. The Department has one reasonably equipped laboratory which because of the increased student enrolment is now proving to be inadequate.
Only pure sciences are on offer, at Forms One and Two, all the students are taught Biology, Physics and Chemistry. During this period, individual students are able to explore their potentialities and are consequently allowed to make choices at the end of Form Two. Following careful scrutiny of courses on offer at the University, the Department deemed it fit to make Chemistry compulsory for all students due to its universality in all science oriented courses. A choice is therefore only made between Physics or Biology.
Contrary to popular belief that science subjects are a hard nut to crack, we are proving the opposite to be true as it will be reflected in our superb academic results in the forthcoming National Examination. Student involvement in research has enabled them to achieve incredible success at the County Science Congress from whence some have progressed even to the Metropolitan Science Congress.
The inquisitive nature of our students make teaching of science most enjoyable; as the teacher also sharpens their individual aptitudes to enable them to adequately quench the student’s insatiable thirst for more information. With the advent Information Technology and its incorporation in the teaching / learning process of science, we shall continue to churn out students of great resolve with a keen eye for excellence and scholastic acumen. The department aims at attaining greater heights in the coming years and has set achievable and time-bound targets.
