The Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) claims children and teachers with special needs have been neglected by the education system. Knut Secretary General Wilson Sossion said several years after reforms, these learners and teachers remained neglected in terms of school enrollment and remuneration.
"Out of the three million school-going children in Kenya, a huge fraction live with disability. We still have a lot of work to be done in this country," said Sossion at the close of a Special School Heads Association of Kenya annual delegates' conference in Nairobi yesterday.
