Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The government through the Ministry of the National Treasury on Monday clarified that it had released funds meant for Junior Secondary Schools (JSS).<\/p>\n

The Ministry dismissed claims that circulated in the media claiming that funds were yet to be disbursed to schools causing funding challenges.<\/p>\n

In a statement to the press dated September 30, the National Treasury noted that the funds allocated for JSS were released on Friday, last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Friday, September 27, the National Treasury disbursed Ksh7.8 billion,\u201d read part of the statement.<\/p>\n

According to the National Treasury, the funds disbursed were specifically allocated to the construction of JSS classrooms all over the country.<\/p>\n

The funds were split into three, Ksh3.4 billion was sent to the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NGCDF) Board as the Ministry of Education’s share.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Ksh3.4 billion NGCDF is matching funding and Ksh1 billion NGCDF was for Nairobi County.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Education, through the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NGCDF), received the lion\u2019s share because of the construction of classes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis funding is intended to ensure that the necessary infrastructure is in place for the smooth operation of Junior Secondary Schools,\u201d the Ministry of Treasury stated.<\/p>\n

The ministry has thus vowed to continue supporting the Junior Secondary Schools with the necessary capitation.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny claims suggesting funding shortages or challenges are therefore unfounded,” the ministry added emphasising that education will continue to be given attention.<\/p>\n

After grade 9, those who will join Grade 10 will be the first class in Senior Secondary School (SSS) which is expected to have three grades in its structure.<\/p>\n
