    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. It is sad that we are talking about students not going to school when we have young students in the gallery. What message are we sending to these students? Are we telling them that they have no hope if they do not get a mean grade of A in the exams? Discontinuing over 3,000 students is something that calls for urgent attention and serious action against the people who have perpetrated it. I find that act to be discriminatory. Discontinuing those students means that one is targeting areas that do not perform well; the hardship areas, and it also discourages students. Teachers and administrative officers who are posted in those areas hardly stay there because of hardships. I have a Statement that is being processed, and it is on the sacking and interdiction of almost all the teachers in a sub county. What message are we sending when we interdict teachers and remove students from school? The parents are asked to pay school fees, they toil to pay the fees and after making the payment, they are told that their children will not learn. Are they going to be refunded that money? This is serious and calls for urgent action. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
