Ezekiel Machogu, Cabinet Secretary for Education, will launch the KUCCPS webpage for 2022 KCSE candidates today, Wednesday.

The ceremony will occur at the University of Nairobi's (UoN) Taifa Hall, where he will start the Nairobi Innovation Week.

Following the launch, the University placement portal will be open for 2022 KCSE applicants to choose which colleges to attend and which subjects to pursue.

On May 4, CS Machogu told parliament that students could choose between government and private universities. Still, only those students in public institutions would be sponsored by the government.
