Learning was disrupted in many schools and colleges around the country on Monday following a lockdown by the government over plans to hold demonstrations on the 35th commemoration of Saba Saba.
Several private schools and universities announced they would transition to remote operations.
Multiple schools across the country have announced suspensions of in-person learning for Monday, July 7, opting instead for remote instruction or outright closures. A spot check by The Standard found that Moi Avenue Primary School, which is at the heart of Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD), remained closed on Monday with anticipated protests.
Rusinga Schools and Breaburn along Gitanga Road also remained closed.
