    "content": " Hon. Speaker, this Petition is timely and it needs to be looked into expeditiously by the relevant committee. As we are all aware, most of the times, many Kenyan children have been disenfranchised and denied a chance to pursue post-secondary education on the basis of grades. Grades are things that happen on the basis of the state of mind that one is in, at the time they are doing exams. They, therefore, do not mean a lot in terms of the capacity of a student or a kid to continue with further education. The Committee can look at this Petition and, perhaps, draw some guidelines that will enable children who have gone through secondary school to get a second chance in life, rather than condemning them on the basis of mechanical issues such as grades."
