<p>Secondary schools will receive free education funds this week. This is according to <a href="https://educationnewshub.co.ke/">Education</a> Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha. He said secondary schools will receive close Sh15 billion.</p>
<p>“We shall release the money next week (this week) to schools and therefore no one should try to cause panic or anxiety,” He said on last Thursday.</p>
<p>According to school heads, their accounts have run dry and they may not adequately prepare for the administration of KCPE and KCSE examinations if the cash is not disbursed.</p>
<p>The Ministry of Education released Sh14.6 billion to fund secondary schools and another Sh4.6 billion for primary institutions when schools reopened in January this year.</p>

<p>The government’s financing model of free education is spread in a 50:30:20 ratio meaning that half the money is sent during the First Term, 30 per cent in the Second Term and the balance released in Third Term.</p>
