The Principal Secretary for Early Learning and Basic Education, Dr. Julius Jwan said the officials need to go where students sleep and also see the condition of the toilets to establish friendliness of the learning environment in the schools.

Dr. Jwan made the remarks when he met senior education officials, led by the Director General, Mr Elyas Abdi at the Kenya School of Government (KSG).
