Questions emerge over review of school fees

Proposals of a task force established to review the cost of secondary school fees have elicited varied reactions, including differences in opinion among members of the team.

The 27-member Task force on Secondary School Fees led by former Assistant Minister for Education Dr Kilemi Mwiria, was set up to find ways of making quality secondary education accessible to all youths by establishing a realistic unit cost of education. This would in turn guide determination of the Government budgetary allocation to the sub sector.
