The categories were borrowed from K.C.C (2004) report on schools. Observation and the rating scale type of questionnaire in focus groups were used to collect data. The study emphasized that infrastructure in schools make significant contribution to informal dimension of learning, but the type of infrastructure used in the school, affects the grade of informal dimension learning. The rush to provide academics has tended to lower the standard of infrastructure provided in Secondary Schools. Save affluent schools, middle and working schools had temporary, congested and have adjusted infrastructure from what the M.O.E and K.C.C recommended for the schools at the beginning. The study was conducted in 12 Secondary Schools, and had targeted to use 360 respondents, but the questionnaires returned were 281.
