Funding headache as over 250,000 students placed for varsity, TVET courses

Placement results for universities and colleges are out but the government will require more than Sh30 billion to fund all the lucky students who managed to get slots.

However, if the government were to stick to its 100 per cent transition pledge, then it would require Sh66.5 billion to absorb all the 754,229 who scored between grades A and D- (minus).

This would, however, still leave out 81,345 students who scored grade E in the 2021 KCSE examination.
