In a significant move to support the smooth transition to the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), Likuyani Member of Parliament, Hon. Innocent Mugabe, has announced the successful implementation of an ambitious infrastructure upgrade in Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) across the constituency.
Speaking at a recent event, Hon. Mugabe emphasized the critical need for adequate facilities to support the new curriculum. “In preparation for the transition to CBC, we have constructed 71 new classrooms in Junior Secondary Schools as part of our robust infrastructure upgrade plan,” he stated.
The initiative is a cornerstone of Hon. Mugabe’s education agenda, aimed at creating a conducive learning environment for students and alleviating the infrastructural challenges that have long plagued schools in the region.
“We recognize that quality education is the foundation of a prosperous society. That is why we are committed to ensuring our students transition seamlessly to CBC with the necessary resources and facilities in place,” he added.
Beyond the classrooms, Hon. Mugabe hinted at further plans to enhance the region’s educational framework, including equipping schools with modern learning materials and training teachers to adapt to the CBC system.
This bold vision aligns with the national government’s push to implement the CBC and improve the quality of education for every child in Kenya. Parents, teachers, and stakeholders in Likuyani have lauded the MP’s efforts, expressing optimism about the future of education in the constituency.
Hon. Mugabe’s initiative not only reflects his dedication to education but also serves as a model for other constituencies striving to improve school infrastructure. As the CBC transition unfolds, Likuyani stands out as a beacon of progress and hope for a brighter educational future.
