The Catholic Church, which runs many schools, has backed the Competency Based Curriculum.

The church said it is working closely with the Ministry of Education and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), to ensure successful implementation of the 2-6-3-3-3 system, which is replacing the 8-4-4 system.
