The Kenyan Ministry of Education has prohibited all extracurricular activities, including parental attendance at prayer days in schools, for the third term. This measure aims to increase student focus ahead of the upcoming national examinations, including KCSE and KPSEA.

• All extracurricular activities, such as Prayer Day, AGMs, and prize-giving ceremonies, are banned for the third term.
• Education Principal Secretary Julius Bitok issued the circular on August 28, emphasizing minimizing distractions for students.
• While parent-involved prayer sessions are forbidden, regular prayers by chaplains and teachers within schools will continue uninterrupted.
