105 national high schools in Kenya

This article is about the National High Schools in Kenya. These schools often have the privilege of selecting students with the highest KCPE scores when selected. Previously, there were only 18 national schools in Kenya until 2011 when the then Education Minister Sam Ongeri proposed the addition of more than 30 national schools to avoid early admission problems.

In 2013, the state raised more than 30 local schools to national level with the aim of promoting national unity and social relations.
In 2014, the Ministry of Education added more than 27 schools to the national Schools, bringing the number of national Schools in Kenya to 105.

The other two main reasons for the increase are to improve the standard and to create new spaces to support the growing number of students in the country.
