A few days ago, the Ministry of Education convened a stakeholders meeting to deliberate on the proposals contained in a draft bill developed and prepared by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development.
It was reported that the bill which seeks to abolish the 8-4-4 system was unanimously adopted. Top education officials announced that the system would be replaced with the digital literacy programme. It is not in doubt that ICT is now driving the world economy. Kenya cannot afford to be left behind.
