STAKEHOLDERS DENY LOW, DELAYED SCHOOL FUNDING

According to education stakeholders, insufficient funding for students, sluggish capitation in schools, and weak educational policies are impeding the delivery of high-quality education in the nation. This issue has caused the commercialization of education, which costs parents money.

At all educational levels, there is a need for higher and prompt capitation in order to efficiently pay students’ education.

To ensure effective service delivery, the government should also prioritize the protection of teachers. Even in the face of delayed financing, school administrators are under tremendous pressure to promote learning. Constante Wesonga, Secretary General of the Universities Academic Staff Union (UASU), emphasized the difficulties teachers and schools confront as a result of insufficient funding.

He expressed disapproval of the government sending pupils to school without the appropriate funding, placing a strain on the infrastructure of the institutions. Wesonga also asked for policy changes to address the issue of boarding school administrators exploiting teachers.

Private schools have expanded as a result of rising demand for education, subpar public schools, and insufficient restrictions. It is proposed that a larger budget would enable the Teachers Service Commission to hire more instructors and address the existing teacher shortage.

The Quality Assurance and Standards Department could be given more authority by the Ministry of Education to effectively oversee and control schools if given enough resources. The government sending students to universities without giving the necessary money has produced confusion in tertiary education, according to the stakeholders.

They underlined the necessity to build more educational facilities in rural and squatter communities and guarantee that all residents have access to a quality education. Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) exams are costly to conduct, and given the government’s aim of a 100 percent transition, there are worries that the funding allotted won’t be enough to support the education sector.
