The Ministry of Education has rescinded its plan to abolish boarding schools for Grades One to Nine beginning this academic year.
However, boarding secondary schools that are still running under the 8-4-4 system have been encouraged to introduce day wings to accommodate more students.
Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu allayed fears that the government would abolish boarding arrangements for junior secondary schools.
