Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha has sounded the last warning to school heads just two weeks since the phased reopening of schools began.
Magoha was speaking on Wednesday, October 28, during a tour of Muruguru Girls Secondary school in Nyeri County where he inpected the distribution of desks.
He warned primary and secondary school heads that resumption of learning had only been approved for Grade Four, Class Eight and Form Four students.
The CS noted that some private and international schools had permitted onsite learning for students outside the allowed classes, against the government’s directives.
“The government has not opened schools for other children whether in public, private and international schools. If anyone is bringing in more children that we had said in the beginning, we are going to react swiftly.
“This is the last warning for whoever feels that he or she is bold enough to open schools without authority. I want a full report on my desk, otherwise, the government will react and we should not be blamed for what actions we take,” Magoha spoke.
The Ministry of Education has also maintained that learning for Grade Four, Class Eight and Form Four students will continue despite an increase in cases.
