Don’t send subsidies through councils, school heads plead

On Wednesday, the Tanzania Heads of Secondary School Association (Tahossa) urged the government to stop sending primary and secondary school funds through district councils, and instead, deposit the monies directly into school accounts. The district councils should have the primary duty of overseeing how the money was being spent, they recommended during the Tahossa annual general meeting in Mwanza recently.

President Uhuru Kenyatta has warned public schools against increasing school fees arbitrarily.
