According to the letter sent to Dr. Julius Jwan by the CEO of the commission, Dr. Macharia highlighted that there is need for teachers to be trained on the new subjects that have no teachers owing to the  double intake slated for 2023.

For a secondary teacher, they are mandated to train only for a minimum of two subjects but now the new CBC  requires them to have one more subject than what they had previously.

Dr Macharia’s report indicates that some subjects  may not be affected and should be retrained across the country.

Below is the list is of the subjects:

To Effect this program, the commission recommends the following:

  1. Enough funds be made available for training of the teachers for effective implementation of junior and senior secondary new curriculum.
  2. The commission settled on three diploma colleges ( Kibabii , kagumo and Lugari )to be given a go ahead on admitting students for the new subjects
  3. Kenya Technical Training College(KTTC) to be ordered  to  train teachers in the technical oriented subjects required under new curriculum.
  4. Sensitizing Universities to be  informed about the new subjects and in return during admission they should advise students pursuing education to meet the projected demands.

    This is a good move. Teachers should be armed with the 21st century skills to make this CBC a successful venture. I can’t imagine my son’s future gambled with.
