Honestly, I think the state cannot address this problem. But if the bureaucrats in @EduMinKenya are serious, this is what they should do:
1. Get in touch with the family and find out how the child is. And use your perdiems to pay that hospital bill.
2. Close the school.

3. Set up a tribunal equivalent of the TJRC, not for public relations, but to investigate and document school violence. Kenya keeps up this pretense of being peaceful in the region because we traumatize our children.
4. Open the school only when a full report of what happened has been made public and we are clear what remedies have been put in place to ensure it doesn't happen again.
5. Tell Nancy Macharia of @TSC_KE to stop talking badly to teachers. You can't have good teachers when they are constantly insulted, threatened and transferred by their employer. That's abuse.
6. Set up a protocol for reporting abuse of children in schools.
7. Recognize that we can never completely fix our schools without fixing our education philosophy, our economy and our cultural spaces. Kenyans tell their kids to vumilia abuse because making a living in Kenya is so difficult. There are few options.
