The first grade of CBC will be admitted to junior secondary schools in 2023 which will be domiciled in the current secondary schools.
Teachers will be required to undergo training on technology, creativity, computer application in teaching and the use of phones in education.

This is because competency based curriculum is fashioned to make learners creative and self sufficient as opposed to the current theoretical 8-4-4 education system.
However, the proposals have been resisted by teachers’ unions citing lack of consultations with education stakeholders.

KUPPET chairman Omboko Milemba has urged the commission to hold a stakeholders meeting to discuss the proposals first before implementation.
These aren’t the only changes that TSC plans to introduce. Already, the entry point for all persons interested in joining teaching has been set at diploma ending P1 certificates.
