Learning conditions at Grassland Comprehensive School in Saboti Sub-County, Kenya, are set to improve significantly with the completion of new classrooms. The project, funded through the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF), aims to address the issue of congestion and provide a more conducive environment for pupils. The school has been facing challenges due to a shortage of learning spaces, affecting the effectiveness of education.

The new classrooms were officially launched on Tuesday, September 24, 2026, by Saboti Member of Parliament, Caleb Amisi. During the launch, Amisi emphasized the importance of education and encouraged learners to make the most of the new facilities to enhance their academic performance. He expressed his commitment to improving learning infrastructure across the constituency to ensure that children have a dignified learning environment.

MP Amisi also revealed that plans are underway to provide buses to schools in the constituency to address transportation challenges. Additionally, he mentioned that bursaries for needy learners are being processed, aiming to alleviate the financial burden on parents and keep learners in school. Applicants who followed the required procedures will be considered for the bursaries.

The school headteacher welcomed the project, expressing gratitude to the NG-CDF for their support. The new classrooms are expected to provide pupils with sufficient space to study, which should lead to improved academic performance. The headteacher acknowledged that the institution had been struggling with a shortage of learning spaces.
