Calls Issued to Strengthen Day Schools as Illegal Levies Persist - February 2026

Stakeholders are calling on the Kenyan government to increase the construction of day secondary schools. This initiative aims to ensure a 100 percent transition rate for students moving from primary to secondary education. A separate call has been issued to strengthen day schools to further facilitate this student transition. In contrast to these efforts, a recent education inspection revealed that illegal school fees are still being charged in various institutions. These illegal levies continue to be imposed on parents despite directives from the Ministry of Education to cease such practices.
