Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has ordered all County Directors of Education to ensure there is no canning in public schools. He warned any education officials sleeping on the job that they will not be spared. He also said some school principals are taking advantage of failure by some county directors to supervise institutions to charge excessive fees.

‘’When you hear some parents complaining of excessive fees being charged yet we have the laid down guidelines, the blame should be on the County Directors Education who continue to remain in office instead of being in the field supervising the head teachers and principals,” he said.
