The ministry of education led by CS Education professor George Magoha has invited education stakeholders for a consultative meeting tomorrow at the KICD (Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development) to debate on reopening of schools.
Among the invited stakeholders include teachers unions Knut led by its secretary Wilson Sossion, Kewota led by its CE Bentah Opande and Kuppet led by Akelo Misori.
This follows after the directive from the president to the ministry to put all things in place for schools to resume.
The meeting which kicks off tomorrow at 9:30 am will give way forward on whether schools will reopen. A day before professor George Magoha insisted that schools will not reopen until the virus has stabilized for at least two weeks. The CS also said that they will consider on whether to allow only for the candidates to resume learning first as they check on on Covid-19 trend.
A similar meeting was suspended on Sunday at Kabarak university after two staffers at the institution tested positive for Covid-19.
Good I like the way the CS handles this issue
you people have to understand because to some this is new
Let’s hope for the best Tanzania has reopened schools it is possible even with us here
May the C’s deal with candidates first, is when other classes shall be solved later..
I like the way Cs handle the issue, but may they have full concern over the candidates.
Move on with reopening of schools but gradually with senior classes given priority. masking is already with pupils and your priority is temporary classes contractual teachers.
The decision of the school reopening should be made by the ministry of health because ministry of education is not responsible and can not be responsible for the Corona issue.
May God help Kenyan
It’s my earnest prayer that all will be well soon so that our children and students resume to studies. Father God reign in the Land of Kenya by your eminent mercies, compassions and Grace.
