MP Ndindi Nyoro from Kiharu Constituency sent five public primary school teachers to Dubai as a reward for crushing the national exams. The program started back in 2022 to motivate day school teachers and get schools competing harder, and it covers headteachers from top performers, plus subject teachers who showed the biggest improvement. Last year, 11 teachers hit up Dubai while one went to Malaysia instead, and anyone who has already gone gets to pick a different spot next time.
The five-day trips get funded by both the MP and the National Government Constituency Development Fund. Teachers like Beatrice Wachira from Technology Primary School and Francis Waithaka from Mbari ya Hiti Primary School were hyped about the exposure and the chance to check out learning institutions abroad for ideas.
The whole thing is part of the bigger Kiharu Fanikisha initiative that sponsors young people through vocational training. Nyoro also launched Kiharu Masomo Bora, which tiled all 112 public primary schools and subsidized secondary school fees while feeding students free porridge and lunch six days a week.
