The Conceptualisation and Regulation of APBET Schools in Kenya: Applying the Abidjan Principles on the Right to Education

The Conceptualisation and Regulation of APBET Schools in Kenya: Applying the Abidjan Principles on the Right to Education

This report explores the status and regulation of Alternative Provision of Basic Education and Training (APBET) schools in Kenya, using the Abidjan Principles on the Right to Education as a framework. It highlights the challenges faced by public education in Kenya, particularly in informal urban settlements, where private and non-formal education options, such as APBET schools, have proliferated. The report distinguishes between public and private education, outlining the state's obligations to provide free, high-quality public education and regulate private education. It discusses the legal and policy framework governing various types of schools in Kenya, including public, private, APBET and community (Harambee) schools, and recommends policy measures to improve access to quality education for all children.
