At least 2 million students across the country had their schooling interrupted by extreme climate in 2024.

The results of the analysis done by the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) showed that the children were among 242 million learners globally who missed school in 85 countries following heavy rain  that caused floods, cyclones and heat waves.

The analysis looked at interruption of school timetables, and the impact on learners from pre-primary to upper secondary level.

In Kenya, the heavy rains and flooding disrupted the school calendars between March and August last year.
