Advertisements

The Ministry of Education has released new guidelines for all Co-Curricular activities. In the new guidelines, responsibilities of various officials to be in charge of the Co-curricular activities have been stipulated. Financing for Co-Curricular activities has also been outlined. The sources for funding include: Co- Curricular Activity (CCA) Vote head, Free Primary Education (FPE) funds and Free Day Secondary Education (FDSE) funds. The Ministry of education disburses Co- Curricular Activity funds to the Sub- county Directors of Education (SCDEs), County Directors of Education (CDEs) and Regional Directors of Education (RDEs). These field officers have Authority to incur expenses for the various activities.

In the new guidelines, Counties will now pay referees as Sub Counties bear the responsibility of paying their coaches and Team Managers.
