    "content": "Third, review of the Board of Management (BOM) Reports of respective schools within the sub-county for submission to the County Education Board. We are currently reviewing and renewing the membership of BOMs for all primary and secondary schools. Certain counties like Nairobi City, Nakuru and Kiambu are very vast. If we were to wait for the County Education Board to review all the BOMs, how long would it take? That is why the Ministry usually organises itself so that sub-county officials do this work; however, that is not their work. This Bill proposes that we give the mandate to the Sub-County Education Board because it understands the areas and the needs of the majority of the schools. The sub-county officers should then take the outcome to the county office to note and forward to the Ministry. If we wait for the County Education Board to do the work, it will take a long time. What happens at the sub-county is what we seek to anchor in the Basic Education Act so that it is not an arranged programme within the County Education Office."
