The Kenya Union of Post Primary School Teachers (KUPPET) is now calling for the establishment of guidelines that will ensure teachers take charge of curriculum activities in schools.
Speaking during the Kenya Primary Teachers Heads Association (KEPSHA) Western Regional Conference in Busia on Friday, KUPPET Chairman Omboko Milemba said there is need for stakeholders to give a clear guideline on curricular activities in schools. "We are urging the Ministry of Education, parliament and all education stakeholders to give proper direction on who should be in charge of school games, drama, music and other co-curricular activities," he said, adding that only registered teachers should be in charge of these activities in our schools.
Milemba called on political leaders to ensure they do not promote their political agenda by involving students in their affairs. "We should not include our students in our politics.
Students are apolitical as they don't take part in politics.
