Stakeholders have urged Education CS George Magoha to proceed with caution in his plans to reopen schools closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. But six months after their closure in March, there are no safety measures that have been put in place for the anticipated reopening of schools. For this reason, the Kenya Secondary Schools Association chairman Indimuli Kahi said many institutions are unprepared for reopening. Kenya Primary Schools Heads Association chair Nicholas Gathemia said they are yet to receive cash to make safety improvements. But, she said, it is possible to safely reopen schools where the coronavirus transmission rates are low, so long as extensive precautions are taken.
