Why it was wrong to domicile junior secondary in primary schools

Having the KPSEA exams serve the purpose of guiding stakeholders in education is probably not a bad idea. However, the major challenge comes when the same students remain in the same school and are taught by the same teachers who taught them at the primary level.

The best way of defining such is simply an extension of primary schools from Grade 6 to Grade 9. It even gets worse when, in some schools, the junior secondary students share the same uniform as the primary school students; there is zero feeling of transitioning to the next level of education.
