Ng’iya Girls High School has emerged as one of the top-performing schools nationally and particularly in Siaya county in the just released 2025 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination results.
The girls’ school posted an impressive overall performance producing a strong cluster of high achievers and earning recognition among the county’s academic frontrunners. Leading the pack was Rebecca Ngoya, who attained an A (plain), a rare feat that positioned her among the country’s top KCSE candidates.
The exemplary results have been attributed to sustained academic focus, disciplined learners and committed teaching staff who have worked closely with students throughout their secondary school journey.
Education stakeholders have described Ng’iya Girls’ performance as a demonstration that county schools can achieve national-level excellence with the right leadership and systems in place.
Speaking after the release of the results, the school’s Director of Studies, Mr Rakama Bazuu, credited the strong performance to consistent leadership and deliberate academic reforms spearheaded by the school administration.
“This performance is a result of continued efforts by our principal, Mrs Hellen Masengeli, whose leadership has emphasized academic discipline, early syllabus coverage, and continuous assessment of learners,” Mr Bazuu said.
He noted that the school implemented structured revision programmes, regular examinations, and learner mentorship initiatives aimed at improving confidence and academic preparedness ahead of the national exams.
The performance by Ng’iya Girls high school comes amid improving KCSE outcomes in Siaya County, a trend education officials say is driven by strengthened academic supervision and increased emphasis on quality education.
