Education in Kenya is much different than what we in America experience. The school day starts around 7:30 AM and last until around 4:30PM, and teaching more than writing, reading, and arithmetic. They teach respect, grow curiosity, and instill values. Education is a very sought after privilege that is cherished greatly by those who get to obtain it.
A public school system is not in existence and therefore education is not available to everyone. Typically the oldest child will go to school and then it's their responsibility to come home and teach every one else the lessons from that day. Those who get the opportunity to go to primary school may not be able to move up to secondary unless they pass the grueling exams and funding is available.
Tabibu Africa Inc's in country director Fred, and his wife Alice, are the brains behind multiple operations; which are designed and created to educate and empower budding hearts and minds in rural and urban Kenya alike.
