There is more to raising a child than academic excellence

Education is perceived as one of the principal driving forces behind national economic development, the pursuit of higher standards of living and the establishment of a more inclusive and progressive society.

For these reasons, Kenya has continually invested heavily in education over the years. At the moment, the government is pumping billions into the ongoing curriculum reform, laptops project for schools, purchase of free textbooks, free primary and secondary education, tertiary education and so forth.
