    "content": "have been committing each year to channelling a substantial amount of our national budgetary resources to our education sector. In the past financial year, we ensured that about a quarter of our national budget was allocated to education. In a call to action endorsed by several Heads of State and Government at this year‟s Global Education Summit, that Kenya was privileged to lead alongside the United Kingdom (UK), my administration pledged to allocate 26 per cent of our national expenditure to education in the coming financial year. This, I believe, is an achievable target given that our current apportionment stands slightly less than a quarter. These dedicated funds have allowed us to achieve what was previously thought to be impossible goals. In 2009, the first year of free secondary education witnessed a 66.9 per cent transition from primary to secondary school, but by 2018, we had increased that transition rate to 85.5 per cent. Today, we can proudly report that we have secured a true 100 per cent transition rate for three successive years in our primary to secondary school system."
