KNUT Wants Sh.2000 Increase In Primary School Allocations Per Pupil.
The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) wants the government to increase the allocation for primary schools per pupil from Sh 3000 to 5000.
Willis Inganga, Secretary-General of the KNUT Western Region says the capital increase will enable primary schools to compete with day secondary schools, which receive Sh 26,000.
The officials are now requesting that the government establish a special docket within the ministry to support the payments of support staff in primary institutions.
