Confusion as Amina changes tune on new education curriculumEducation CS Amina Mohamed greets Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) Secretary General Wilson Sossion during the release of the 2018 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results in Nairobi. Amina had announced that the country was not ready to accommodate the CBC saying resources and gaps in teacher training were challenges. However, the CS did not divulge details on a clear cut road map on how teachers and pupils will go about the new curriculum. In her statement yesterday, just like last week, Amina said the CBC National Pilot of the 2-6-6-3 curriculum will be extended for one more year to allow alignment in implementation, particularly, intensive in-service teacher training. Some 470 schools were selected to pilot the curriculum, with the the nationwide roll out expected to cover 33,000 schools.
