Abstract/ Overview
The government has focused on enrolment of children of school-going age into the schooling system, culminating in continued significant growth in enrolment rates over the years. Little focus is however directed to retention of these students in the schooling system, leading to a significant number of them dropping out or not transitioning to the next level of education. Therefore, most of the potential labour supply is characterized by those with only up to primary school level of education. The skills largely acquired through the education system and training are crucial in executing development projects under Kenya's Vision 2030.
