R package that provides access to school location information from Kenya Ministry of Education.

The package was developed as part of a contribution made by the afrimapr project to the @WiGISKe #DataViz challenge looking at teenage pregnancies since 2016.

Data source

The data was obtained as SHP file from https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/dataset/kenya-schools on 26 July 2020. The original data was provided to the World Bank Data Catalogue by the Ministry of Education of Kenya and was last updated in 2016.

CAVEAT: Upon closer inspection it appears as if there are also data from Open Data Kenya, 2007 in the SHP file. This data have counties such as Nairobi North, Nairobi East, and Nairobi South that complicates spatial data analysis with current county boundaries where there's only Nairobi County.

Note: The json file provided at the same location appears to only have data for primary schools

Data processing

  • The .rar archive was downloaded from the link provided above.
  • Raw data (unrar-ed shp.rar) is available in data-raw/.
  • The data cleaning script is available in data-raw/get_schools.R.
