Over 23,000 school heads are attending the conference in Mombasa to deliberate on critical matters including the structural changes in basic education.
The administrators asked the government to ensure the timely release of funds before the opening of schools to ease their operations.
Primary school head teachers have asked the State to promote the administrators who manage the comprehensive schools (pre-primary, primary and junior school) due to the heavy responsibilities bestowed upon them.
The administrators said the creation of the comprehensive schools that are all under one board of management with a single head teacher and a deputy has come with added responsibilities.
