Hon. @HonWangari on a point of order.
We’ve been able to interact with many schools, leaders, and school administrators during the recess, and I can tell you schools are suffering. Even buying chalk and biro pens is almost becoming impossible for them. The explanation the Ministry has been giving through the media does not hold water.
They say they are verifying, but this verification should have been done during the holiday when the children were at home. This term is very short, we have three evaluations and examinations: Grade 3 KNEC, KPSEA, and KJSEA. How then are schools supposed to prepare for these examinations?
I feel that the Committee on Education and the Ministry of Education should provide a way forward. Even if wrong figures were given, as a head of an institution, can those be deducted in the next term? #BungeLiveNA.
