§ Mr. G. M. Thomsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what methods are employed for the provision of school text-books to pupils and teachers in Government schools in Kenya.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydEach school is allocated funds by Government for the purchase of text-books, which are ordered by principals through the Kenya Government Supplies and Transport Department. The Ministry of Education Inspectorate chooses the text-books required for the syllabus, but principals may also, within their financial allocation, purchase supplementary books at their own discretion. The various Advisory Councils on Education are free to raise and discuss matters relating to text-books.
