While the Ministry of Education continues to assure parents, students, and Kenyans at large that everything is set for school reopening scheduled for Monday, January 6, parents are reporting otherwise.
Basic Education Permanent Secretary Belio Kipsang just this week assured the country that the Ministry would ensure a surplus of textbooks to facilitate the smooth incorporation of the competency-based curriculum.
Kipsang reported that nine million books had already been printed and distributed to various schools for the Grade 9 transition.
However, this is not the case.
