    "content": "not be done on academics only; it should be done based on other issues or other abilities that the students have. Secondly, we know of situations where students who perform poorly even commit suicide because of the ranking. So, that has led to many students and parents to be negatively affected. The students should be encouraged to pass the examinations and the uttermost goal should be getting the highest marks, but not being the best student in the nation. So, if that is done across the board, even parents will be encouraged. Some parents get discouraged when their children do not do very well. So, it does not only affect the students, but also the parents, counties and schools. Much of this ranking is only meant for the schools which are very well endowed and equipped and are in the city centres. Those are the ones which should be ranked. If you are ranking, how are you going to do it? Can we rank private schools differently? Can we rank the sub-county schools at some other level and then the rural schools? That way, we will have a level playing ground."
