Several day secondary schools in Bomet are operating under infrastructure strain.
An example in kabungut Day Mixed Secondary school in Bomet central.
Its principal, Mr David Rono said his students share classrooms and pit latrines with the primary section.
The few classrooms for the secondary section were put up by the community.
"Running the two schools in shared facilities has been a challenge. At times, pupils make noise and it becomes hard for students to concentrate on class, Rono said.
He asked the leaders from the area including the area Member of Parliament Ronard Tonui to step in and support the school. The school has a total population of 350 students.
Rono said his office was being used as the library.
"We have some books but we don't have an ideal place to keep them," he said.
The principal said often sometimes they are forced to borrow reading and learning materials from neighboring schools.
He asked the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to post more teachers to the school for effective learning to more as expected.
"We have three government teachers while the rest are working under the Board of Management terms," Rono said.
