Abstract
This study investigated the extent to which the implementation of the FSE has contributed to availability of teaching and learning resources in Keiyo District, Kenya. This study was an Ex-post-facto descriptive research that examined the situation as it was on the ground without any manipulation of variables. The target population of the study comprised a total of 37 secondary schools that present candidates for KCSE in Keiyo district. Keiyo District was chosen in this study because it is one of the districts that has high poverty index and therefore likely to benefit more from the FSE policy. The sample consisted of 25 secondary schools drawn through stratified random sampling technique. The instruments for data collection were: self-administered questionnaires, interview schedule and document analysis e.g. inventories, circulars. The data collected was summarized by; the use pie charts, graphs and frequency tables. Analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The study established that the FSE policy has contributed to availability of teaching and learning resources, that with the implementation of FSE policy most learning and teaching materials are adequate and used, most materials and resources were effectively used and the head teachers had put appropriate measures to ensure that the use of the resources are maximized. The study recommends that the Ministry of Education should consider increasing the funding immensely as it encourages other stakeholders to complement government efforts in resource mobilization.
