I wish to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, aware that Article 43 (f) of the Constitution of Kenya stipulates that every person has a right to education and Article 53 (1) (b) provides that every child has the right to free and compulsory basic education; ALSO AWARE that education is a basic need and a tool for intellectual empowerment and sociopolitical development; FURTHER AWARE that education is a shared function between the national and county levels of government with the national Government being responsible for primary, secondary and higher education while the county governments are responsible for pre-primary education, village polytechnics and home-craft centres; COGNIZANT that both levels of government complement each other in promoting sustainable education; CONCERNED that the intake, uptake and quality of education in northern Kenya have adversely been affected owing to discrepancies in public resources allocation, insecurity, skewed staffing and teacher training in the region; FURTHER CONCERNED that both the school completion rate and the national examination outcomes in the region are poor and the number of students from northern Kenya who qualify for core courses in universities, colleges, technical schools, and village polytechnics is minimal compared to other parts of the country; The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
