The county will provide capitation grants to support children in Early Childhood Development Education.

ECDE in Embu County Embu County has supported ECDE primarily through a focus on food security and teacher employment, rather than direct cash capitation grants to learners, as indicated by the launch of a pilot feeding program. The county government, under Governor Cecily Mbarire, has prioritised enhancing enrollment through this nutrition initiative in collaboration with Food for Education. Education Grants While the 2023-2027 County Integrated Development Plan includes education, specific capitation disbursements are not frequently highlighted, contrasting with the county’s significant investment in vocational training and higher education bursaries.
