The government will give Sh15,000 per learner as capitation to facilitate free learning for Junior Secondary in public schools.

At the same time, the government recommends that Junior Secondary learners will have a distinct school uniform to distinguish them from the rest of the learners in the lower tier in shared primary schools.
