Parents will have to buy new sets of uniforms for their children joining junior secondary, according to new draft guidelines by the Government as schools reopen in two weeks.
At least 1.2 million learners are expected to transition into junior secondary school. Junior secondary schools will also have separate Boards of Management that will oversee the running of the institutions and also supervise the financial management of the establishments. Primary school heads will, however, act as Junior Secondary school principals during the transition period.
