How teachers and schools can use the TOYA 2026 list
The national roll of honour is a reference for professional networks, mentorship programmes and school improvement plans. Awardees often share best practices in teaching methods, inclusion, ICT integration and community engagement. Schools can highlight award recognition in performance reports and stakeholder communication.
Resources and related teaching materials
Use targeted exam and curriculum resources to support classroom practice and professional development. For CBC-aligned assessments and teaching notes, see CBC exam resources and sample papers. For primary exit preparation and past papers, use the KCPE past papers collection. Secondary and national exam revision support is available in the KCSE revision exams library.
Note: This roll recognises diverse forms of excellence across mainstream and special education settings. Teachers, heads of schools and county education officials can refer to specific award categories above to identify regional leaders and national honourees for collaboration and benchmarking.
