AFRICAN AID: Pupils and staff from Barnard Castle School on a visit to Kenya before lockdown
STUDENTS are running, climbing and cycling into action to help pupils in Africa combat Covid-19 and return to their classrooms.
Barnard Castle School pupils have so far raised more than £3,000, which will be used to buy protective masks and handwashing stations for a school for children with disabilities and another for deaf students.
Covid-19 restrictions closed both St Anthony’s School for the Deaf, Bungoma County, and Nalondo CBM Special National Secondary School for the Physically Handicapped, resulting in almost 800 Kenyan children missing out on their education.

As schools in Kenya start to reopen, there is no or little budget for equipment such as masks and hand sanitation.

Leader of Opposition in parliament Kondwani Nankhumwa has described this year’s Form One selection in public secondary schools as flawed, saying the selection process was marred by favourism and political interference.
Nankhumwa: I question the procedure that has been used
This was after many Malawians took up in various social media platforms and traditional media to accuse the government of favouring the central region in the selection of form one students into public secondary schools.
Nankhumwa said the 2019/20 selection of learners from Standard 8 in primary schools to Form 1 in public and national secondary schools in Malawi has raised very serious suspicion.
