With less than two weeks remaining until the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations, education stakeholders in Kenya are warning of potential disruptions due to delayed capitation disbursements to schools.

• The Kenyan Primary School Headteachers Association (KEPSHA), through Fuad Ali, confirmed that many schools have not yet received government capitation funds for the third term.
• The Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET), represented by Deputy Secretary General Moses Nthurima, expressed concerns that necessary materials for practicals and recurrent expenditures are affected, jeopardizing exam administration.
• This situation arises despite President William Ruto's directive on September 13 to Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba and Treasury counterpart John Mbadi to align the capitation disbursement with the education calendar to prevent delays.
