Teachers across the country have been challenged to do whatever they can to engage with their respective learners. Kenya Private Schools Association chairperson Matheu Kassanga on Tuesday said the current Covid-19 pandemic has provided room for more dialogue between teachers and learners. Kassanga said though the government has directed that schools reopen in January 2021, teachers should not leave learners idle. Look for ways you can engage and interact with these learners in the best way possible,” she said. Her sentiments were echoed by the Kenya National Association of Parents chairperson Nicholas Maiyo who said they had agreed that the health and safety of learners was key.
