How to Capture Data On NEMIS. Since the inception of the former Education CS, Prof. George Magoha , the Ministry of Education has heavily been relying on the data provided by the school administrators through the National Education Management Information System (NEMIS) in assigning learners capitation since 2021.
The system involves capturing learners data through an online system where the teacher is supposed to supply learner’s details identifying every learner.
Initially, the ministry has been relying on a manual system which seems to have so many loopholes in terms of capturing learners’ data, hence the Ministry has erroneously sent capitation to schools even after providing false information.
Using this system, the headteachers are responsible for the data provided for their schools and this has minimized the human error resulting from faulty capturing of the learners data.
The headteachers and principals can as well make any changes to the data from time to time to keep the date up to date.
The system can accept learners even without the birth certificate numbers.
