Dekow calls for smooth transition as CBC pioneers move to senior school

Garissa Township MP Dekow Mohamed has called on the Ministry of Education to make adequate preparations for the transition of learners from grade 9 to 10 next year to avoid causing confusion to both parents and learners.

Senior school, which covers Grades 10 to 12, will officially begin in January 2026, marking the transition for the pioneer Grade 9 cohort.

Speaking during an NG-CDF bursary kitty launch forum in Garissa town, the MP cautioned the government against making last-minute preparations, which could hurt the implementation of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). "We want the Ministry of Education to be responsible.

We do not want a hazardous way of implementing government programmes.
