Some parents complained that some principals even threaten to expel their students should they fail to pay the extra fees. The situation was similar at Rang’ala Girls in Siaya County, where parents pay an extra Sh2,000 for motivation. TEXT BOOKSIn February this year, school heads demanded an increase in school fees, saying the current charges are unrealistic. Barding High School principal Geoffrey Owori, where parents also claim to be paying extra unrecorded fees, denied the claims. In Kisii County, some principals want the school fees amount doubled, saying they are forced to cut down some programmes as the amount is insufficient.
