Kenyan government has been devoted to providing primary education since independence. In 2003, the government launched the free primary education to honor its election pledge and strengthen the education system. All payments were abolished and the government committed itself to providing all necessary resources and meet expenses. After inception, about 1.4 million children were admitted in public primary schools. This increased enrollment resulting to various challenges which include limited physical facilities, congested classrooms and shortage of teachers. This study hence aims at assessing the impact of Free Primary Education (FPE) in Kisii County. The study will adopt a descriptive survey design. Stratified random sampling will be used to select the subjects for the study who comprise of Head teachers, teachers, Board Members, Committee Members and pupils from selected public primary schools in Kisii County.
