Reintroduce ranking in national exams, but make system better for all

The Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (Kpsea) results were released recently without much fanfare.

Some parents were not even aware the results were out. And when those of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) came out last week, the fanfare was muted as well, with the only notable explanation of how to access the results, through the Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) portal.  

It seems the only fanfare remaining in Kenya is elections and politically oriented celebrations, which I feel have lately become a vexation to our spirits.
