The general cost of education in the country especially in secondary schools has tremendously rocketed over the past few years. This has even prompted a warning from the president to the headteachers against charging the parents exhorbitantly. The case is worse in national schools where the stake is so high,students who are bright from poor families are locke out annualy and their places taken over by the able rich.  It is in fact said that the cost of secodary education yearly is higher than that of any goverment tertiary education institution. Here is an example of a fee structure to Maseno School,one of the many national schools in the country. In the case,annual fee is Sh. 1o6,623
