In 2020, students stayed at home for an entire term. This took a toll on parents, with the terms being made short.Though some schools resulted in online teaching, not many students benefited from the program; consequently, teaching online had disadvantages.In 2020, former Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha announced that the school calendar year would begin on January 4, 2021, with first and second terms being shortened from 14 to 11 weeks and holidays from four to one week, including a 10-day Christmas break.
