The Modified Dates For Term 2 By The Ministry Of Education
The Modified Dates For Term 2 By The Ministry Of Education. In accordance with the circular of April 24, 2023, Principal Secretary for Basic Education Belio Kipsang announced changes to the second midterm date.
According to the circular, the midterm date of the second semester was scheduled from June 29 to July 2. But this PS made the changes from June 27 to July 1, 2023.
This change comes after Kahi Indimuli, president of the Kenya High School Principals Association (KESSHA), asked PS to change the date so they would have a chance to attend the KESSHA conference.
According to the letter seen by our team, the KESSHA President requested an extension of the midterm date for a second term to allow them to attend the 46th KESSHA conference. The flyer below details the changes made by PS Belio Kipsang.

REF: REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF THE INTEREST DATE
Reference is made to a letter Ref.
KESSHA/NATCONFF/3/VOL.1/23 March 26, 2023 from the National President, Association of Kenyan Secondary School Principals on the above topic.
The letter notes that the date currently scheduled for the second midterm coincides with the date of the 46th National KESSHA Conference.
The Department recognizes that the National KESSHA Conference is an important event that allows school principals to examine and share their experiences in school management. As a result, the midterm election date of the second year of the 2023 term has been postponed to run from June 27 to July 1, 2023.
All principals must note and adhere to the change dates.
