THAT, co-curriculum activities are an integral part of the education process that, not only ensures that the education process produces all rounded persons, but also serves as an income earner to learners who pursue co-curriculum related careers. THAT, Section 54(7)(r) of the Basic Education Act further recognizes the importance of co-curriculum activities by obligating the County Director of Education to manage it alongside other sports education, talent development among others in the counties. THAT, in furtherance of the Government’s policy to provide free basic education, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology banned charging extra levies in primary schools and provided for capitation of Kshs76 per child to fund co-curriculum activities vide a circular dated 7th February 2017, which we highly appreciate.
