    "content": "The Government continues to make sustained investments in the education sector in order to enhance access to quality basic and high education. In this Budget, I have set aside Kshs497.7 billion to fund programmes in this sector. This accounts for 26.7 per cent of the Budget. Specifically, I have proposed Kshs59.4 billion to cater for free day secondary education programme and Kshs12.4 billion for free primary education programme. To increase teacher to student ratio, I have proposed Kshs2 billion for the recruitment of 5,000 teachers. This is further to the provision of hiring at least 10,000 teacher interns under the Economic Stimulus Programme. To improve health conditions and support education achievement to our school going children, I have set aside Kshs1.8 billion for the school-feeding programme."
