Concerns Raised Over Education Funding, Student Placements, and New Grading System - January 2026

Clergy in Meru are calling for the prompt disbursement of school capitation funds to alleviate the financial strain on parents. Juja MP George Koimburi has urged the Ministry of Education to review the placement of Grade 10 students, citing concerns that many have been sent to schools far from their homes. In Baringo County, Loromoru Primary School will not reopen after it was demolished by officials believed to be from the Kenya Forest Service. Meanwhile, an upcoming news segment aims to explain Kenya's new school grading system to students and parents. Education Commentator Janet Ouko has highlighted these and other significant challenges, calling for a comprehensive plan for the education system.
