The Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) has bowed to pressure from the public over misleading content in the Form Three Biology textbook.

Concerned Kenyans had petitioned KICD to issue a public apology and review some content in a book titled Certificate Biology for Form Three learners in the 8-4-4 system of Education arguing that the content was misleading to the learners.

Complaints to KICD highlight two sentences in the textbook that allegedly suggest a connection between indecent dressing and the likelihood of rape.
