Why Early Education Planning Pays Off

There is a universal truth about parenthood: we want to see our children succeed.

For some, success means watching them walk across a graduation stage, for others; it may mean seeing them build a career or pursue a passion. Whatever success looks like, one thing that sits beneath it all is a good education. Across hundreds of families, we’ve seen that intentional education planning leads to better outcomes.

When planning for Education, it is great to think about subject selection and schools to join from one grade to another. But, while we carefully budget for tuition and school admissions, many overlook one crucial reality; life is unpredictable. That is what this article addresses; preparing for the unexpected.

According to World Bank indicators, life expectancy at birth in Kenya is approximately 64 years. Life expectancy at birth refers to the average number of years a newborn is expected to live if current mortality patterns remain unchanged throughout their lifetime.

Imagine a parent who has their first child at the age of 45. When the child completes high school at around age 18, the parent will be approximately 63 years old. By the time the child graduates from university at age 22 or 23, the parent will be about 67 or 68 years old.At this stage of life, the likelihood of experiencing serious health challenges or even passing away increases significantly. Without a financial safety net, such an unexpected event can disrupt a child’s academic journey and the outcomes of their lives.
