Interior and National Administration Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo has said that the Government is committed to ensuring that the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) is fully equipped with enough teachers in Junior Secondary Schools (JSS).
Omollo, who spoke during a church service at Emmaus Catholic Church in Rongo town, said that President William Ruto's government has already hired 76,000 teachers for Junior secondary schools to ensure the new curriculum is well implemented. "Our target as government is to ensure that we hire 110,000 teachers as projected by the President and to equip our learners with tutors that will help steer the education sector in the country," said Omollo.
The PS called on education stakeholders to work with the government to ensure that the 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) students who missed out on university entry are admitted to various Technical institutions to get the necessary skills needed to drive the economy.
On health matters, Omollo urged Migori residents to register for the Taifa Care Programme under the Kenya Universal Health Coverage (UHC) initiative to ensure they benefit from the medical scheme tailored to offer better health care for all Kenyans.
