The Kenyan Government, represented by Basic Education PS Julius Bitok, has confirmed that the policy for free primary and secondary education remains intact, despite recent concerns about funding.

• The education budget has increased to a historical Sh702 Billion, yet funding needs persist.
• Julius Bitok emphasized that the government will continue to lobby Parliament to secure capitation funds.
• A new education data system, Kenya Education Management Information System (KEMIS), will replace NEMIS to improve capitation distribution.
