    The Ministry of Education has issued a strong warning to primary school leaders against using unapproved names, especially “Comprehensive Schools,” in official communications. In a circular dated April 7, Leonard M. Kabaki, the Siaya County Director of Education, stressed that schools must strictly use the names registered on their certificates or face consequences.

    The directive points out that many institutions are operating under names not found on their registration certificates. The Ministry insists that any name changes must follow proper procedures, including approval from the County Education Board and the issuance of a new registration certificate.

    “Schools are required to use the names as they appear on their registration certificates,” the circular states.

    A significant aspect of the notice is the clear ban on the term “Comprehensive Schools,” which the Ministry has confirmed is not authorized for use.

    School leaders have been instructed to immediately cease using this name on letterheads, signs, or any official documents.

    This initiative aims to standardize school naming conventions and address the rise of unregulated branding in the education sector.

    The crackdown emphasizes the government’s commitment to accountability and consistency in school management.

    Using unapproved names can cause confusion among parents, students, and regulatory agencies, potentially impacting funding and accreditation.

    The Ministry’s warning serves as a reminder that failure to comply could lead to penalties, including deregistration.

    Affected schools are now required to review their registration information and apply for official name changes if needed.

    Education stakeholders are encouraged to act quickly to avoid any disruptions.

    This announcement has elicited mixed responses, with some educators calling for clearer guidelines, while others support the effort to maintain order in the sector.
