Decisions
By Francis Tatua
KCSE exams are over and are waiting to be marked; parents don’t judge the institution that your child will be invited.
The students’ power and understanding towards the environment is what will make him or her successful. A student may for example fail in the secondary School examination but when he or she goes to a college she will put more effort and achieve her goals.
Not every student who is talented in books, your child can go to a Polytechnic and can pursue a course that he is skilled at. Some people have become successful in life because of their hard work and dedication in what they have been doing.
After the cabinet secretary for education Prof George Magoha will announce the results after marking, parents need to appreciate their children whether failed or passed since you don’t know where tomorrow the child will be.
When your child is invited to any institution, just see him or her as a winner since most people have gone to universities and held degrees but are jobless. But some attended Polytechnics and used their skills to start their own businesses and are earning.
So the effort of your child and yours as the parent is what determines not the institution.
