Driving schools reject National Transport Safety Authority curriculum

Driving schools in the Rift Valley have opposed a draft curriculum released by the National Transport Safety Authority to guide the sector.

The school owners said most of the proposals in the draft were unacceptable and made without any consultation.

Speaking after a meeting at a Nakuru hotel, Rift Valley Driving School Owners Association chairman John Mwatha said if implemented, the proposals in the draft would kill their investments.

Mr Mwatha said the requirement that driving school instructors should have a grade C-minus Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education qualification would render many jobless.
