Education CS George Magoha has warned principals against asking parents to buy 'irrelevant' items.
“As a ministry, we are committed to ensuring that parents and guardians with learners who will be joining Form 1 are not overburdened with unnecessary requirements,” Magoha said on Monday.
The CS faulted school heads who request extra items, saying this increases the cost of education.
“Principals should exercise caution while listing student requirements as part of the measures to reduce the cost of education,” he said.
