Gov’t to set aside Ksh.5B for junior secondary school laboratories
Education Principal Secretary said that education stakeholders should work to prepare the learners to choose pathways in senior secondary school level.
He said that the ministry of education is working with Members of parliament to urge them to utilise part of the NG-CDF money in improving schools infrastructure.
The government will invest at least Ksh.5 billion from capitation kitty to set up laboratories in Junior Secondary School (JSS).
He says that this is in an effort to ensure adequate infrastructure amid reassuring parents that there are sufficient learning materials for the 1.2 million learners transitioning to the Competency-Based Curriculum.
He encouraged parents not to panic over the transition as it is only meant to monitor and assess learners' progress .
