However, the new system seems not to be working as some officials and the Education ministry have colluded to supply more books to schools than needed in order to cash in on billions of shillings from the sector.
The Kenya Secondary School Heads Association (Kessha), Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut), National Parents Association (NPA) and Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) have protested against this latest scandal.
100% TRANSITION
Kessha has hence asked that book supplies be suspended for four years in order to allow schools to utilise what is available.
Knut has written to Ms Mohamed over the issue of books and congestion in schools following the 100 percent transition policy.
“There are also issues that need to be addressed regarding selection and supply of textbooks to Form One students,” the Knut said.
