"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, compare this with what we are seeing now in our sports. In athletics, for example, because the focus is increasingly targeting financial gains in that field, you will find that some unacceptable practices like doping are now creeping in. The focus now is on how they can get money and not just the spirit of competition where you do your best. When we are talking about competition as it has been said, we must start comparing like with like. You cannot, for example, rank schools in Nairobi, say Kilimani, Consolata and Nairobi Primary with schools in a place like Kapedo or Masende Valley in my constituency. They are not the same. So, I would only support ranking if it is more holistic than what it is now so that we look across the whole development of our children. It cannot be realistic to expect that every child that we take to school will become a professor or a doctor. Some have academic limitations, but they might be much better in other fields where they can excel and earn a living."
