Title: Pundit: Ministry stops expansion of low-cost schools
Post by: Kadudu on September 24, 2015, 03:42:11 PM

Pundit, you brought my attention to this chain of schools and it seems it has become a thorn in the flesch for it's competitors.
I thought Kenya thrives on "free enterprise".

A low-cost chain of private schools backed by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg has frozen its expansion in Kenya after the government issued an order stopping the opening of new non-formal schools.

GOK will fail in that. Those schools are extremely popular. They are growing fast and out-performing GoK schools. They are very well run and the money paid is spent on the kids. Good luck with Sirkal wivu. I visited a few recently

That is stupidity from kaimenyi fools at ministry.Now folks should wait for regulation? what bollocks. The same stupidity that saw him ordering private schools to close. They need to go to court and get an injunction. This is a free country. Not moi era KANU regime.

Yes they need to fight. GOK has failed miserably in education
They churn out half baked students
