The modifications affect language disciplines taught in lower primary as part of the Competency Based Curriculum (CBC).

The KICD and MOE have approved the name Indigenous Language Activities to be used instead of Literacy Activities in a letter delivered to all County Directors of Education on April 5, 2022.

The adjustments, according to the letter, will begin on April 25, 2022, when schools reopen for the first term.
