Thousands of learners in various schools across the country risk being sent home beginning next week after the government failed to disburse adequate capitation.
This is after the Kenya Secondary School Heads Association (KESSHA) expressed its disappointment at the persistent delays in disbursing capitation for the second term.
The head teachers lamented that the delayed disbursement of over Ksh21 billion left several institutions grappling with mounting debts and forced them to make difficult decisions about resource allocation.
While addressing the press on Saturday, May 3, the school administrators detailed how delayed funding had begun undermining the stability of their schools, affecting essential operations, from administrative processes to maintenance of critical facilities.
