The challenge of addressing corruption in education cannot be met in isolation. Therefore, this study will identify factors influencing corruption in schools, the impact of corruption, and strategies to combat corruption. When dealing with corruption in education, cooperation from all sectors in education such as the Ministry of Education (MOE), Anti Corruption Commission (ACC), Parent-Teachers Association (PTA), all staff in the education sectors and communities must have optimum scarification in combating corruption. Laws and regulations and effectively run institutions are not sufficient to prevent corruption. Fostering attitudes that do not tolerate corruption should be one of the priority tasks of education.
