"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to request a statement on education loans to students in teachers' colleges. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a statement from the Standing Committee on Education regarding the lack of Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) funding and Government capitation for certificate and diploma students in primary and secondary school teachers' colleges. In the statement, the committee should: (i) Explain why HELB does not provide loans to students pursuing primary and secondary school teaching courses. (ii) State the level of classification for primary and secondary school teachers' colleges in comparison to universities, tertiary, vocational education and training and the Kenya Medical Training Colleges institutions which benefit from HELB and Government capitation. (iii) State when these teachers' college students will start benefiting from HELB and Government funding similar to students in other higher learning institutions."
