ABSTRACT
The main purpose of the study was to investigate the factors
affecting the implementation of free primary education in Ruiru Division,
Thika District Kenya.
The specific objectives of the study were to determine; if Poor Physical
Facilities affects the implementation of free primary education in Ruiru
Division, if Quality of Education affects the implementation of free
primary education, if Lack of enough Trained Teachers affects the
implementation of free primary education, if Big Pupil-Teacher Ratio
affects the implementation of free primary education and to determine if
High poverty levels of Kenyans affects the implementation of free primary
education in Ruiru Division
The methods used for data collection were questionnaires to the teachers
and focus group discussion with the pupils
The study revealed that Poor Physical Facilities (30%) Quality of
Education (50%), Lack of enough Trained Teachers (25%), Pupil-Teacher
Ratio (33%), and High poverty levels of Kenyans (42%) are the factors
affecting the implementation of free primary education in Kenya
The Study recommended that there should be empowerment of
education committees at the village level so that there is efficient
monitoring of the implementation of the free primary education. Since
district education officers are poorly facilitated they cannot follow up
on the implementation at the lower levels
