Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Education Technologies firm Kodris Africa has offered a full secondary school scholarship to the top KCPE candidate Robinson Fwaro Makokha. Fwaro was one of the two students who scored the highest marks (431) in the 2022 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education. The other was Lewis Otieno.<\/p>\n

Fwaro who was a student at Christ the King Primary School in Bungoma, scored 431 marks and wants to be a software engineer in future. The sponsorship by Kodris Africa includes entire school fees costs, coding licenses and the relevant tools including a laptop for the four years he will be in secondary school.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw on the news that Fwaro would like to become a software engineer. The skill that takes him there is coding, and we want to set him on a firm footing towards achieving his dreams.<\/p>\n

“Coding is one of the most sought-after skills in the world today, and Fwaro is setting the pace,\u201d Kodris CEO Mugumo Munene said.<\/p>\n

Kodris Africa is a platform established to teach primary and secondary school students how to code. It is approved by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development as curriculum support material.<\/p>\n

The firm has partnered with Safaricom, KCB Group and Equity Bank to allow parents to purchase coding licenses for their children. A license contains a year\u2019s worth of coding lessons and includes learner materials.<\/p>\n

Countries like the US, China, England, Germany, and France, among many others, have already made coding compulsory for grade-one learners. On Wednesday, the County Government on Kakamega said it would sponsor secondary education for Lewis Otieno.<\/p>\n

“The County Government of Kakamega will sponsor the top student, Otieno Lewis Omondi Glen, through his secondary education,” he said on Wednesday. Both KCPE top students came from schools located in the western Kenya region.<\/p>\n
