Secondary schools to get Sh8.2 billion for infrastructureEducation PS Belio Kipsang with Milimani High School students when he visited the school during the KCSE in November. “We are investing Sh8.2 billion through the World Bank to ensure that we have adequate laboratories in our schools and to ensure that there are many opportunities for our students,” he said. The PS said deployment of the funds for infrastructure and recruitment of additional teachers will put students in public learning institutions at par with their counterparts in private schools. He said out of the 1,083,456 2019 KCPE candidates who are expected to join Form One in January, at least 200,000 will join private secondary schools. He added that a 1:1 textbook ratio has been achieved in both primary and secondary schools.
