The Government is working tirelessly hard to ensure that all the students become fully equipped with the new prerequisite skills that are needed as per the new Curriculum.The new 2.6.6.3 curriculum has proved to be very expensive for the parents due to the many materials that are needed in schools for a successful implementation.
While taking their children to schools last week,the parents cried that the CBC textbooks are damn expensive for most of them owing to the fact that they need to pay the school fees.However,ministry of education responded that the parents have been exaggerating the prices of these textbooks.
As the implementation process goes on,the teachers too have to be well trained.Currently,the teachers who are yet to be employed by TSC and the counties are applying for the new Diploma upgrade training program.The Government will give guidance on their trainings.
