Former students have been urged to give back to their old schools as institutions across the country struggle to adapt to the competency-based curriculum (CBC) amid financial and structural challenges.

Gabriel Gaitho, a former headteacher at Kiserian Catholic Junior Seminary, formerly Conception Immaculate Seminary in Kiserian, said alumni can play a crucial role in supporting schools through financial aid, mentorship, professional expertise and material donations to ease the burden on parents and administrators.
