Education CS sends a message to school ahead of school reopening.
Before schools open, Machogu sends out a message. Regional education heads are instructed to evaluate the effects of the present floods in a memo issued by the Ministry of Education, which is led by Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu.
The Ministry will consider the results of this study when deciding whether to move forward with the planned reopening of schools the following week.
The email emphasizes how critical it is to look into the harm that severe rains have done to schools around the country. The information gathered will be shared with the Education in Emergencies cluster working group and will be essential for planning.
The Ministry may decide to delay the school’s reopening in order to make the required repairs, based on the findings of the assessment.
The responsibility of supervising the data collection process falls on regional directors, who have until April 26 to turn in their findings.

The Kenya Meteorological Department’s most recent weather forecast indicates that strong rains will persist until April 29 in a number of locations, with flooding and landslides probable in susceptible areas. Parts of Nairobi County, the Lake Victoria Basin, and the Rift Valley are notable areas that are at risk.
Over 40,000 people have already been uprooted by the continuing floods, which have also claimed at least 32 deaths. According to the Kenya National Highways Authority, major roads like Mombasa Road and Thika Road are partially closed as a result of floods (KeNHA).
