Is caning returning to Kenyan schools?
It\u2019s time for some discipline - or, at least, that\u2019s what the Kenyan government thinks.
The education secretary has openly called for corporal punishment to be reintroduced in schools across the country.
He says discipline (and perhaps a little caning) is the only way to deal with unruly students \u2013 who, in recent weeks, have burnt down their dormitories and attacked their teachers.
Teachers\u2019 unions are up in arms and say they won\u2019t accept the return to such archaic practices.
So, is physical punishment really coming back to Kenyan schools?
