West Kenya College Deputy Principal Winfred Inumba has urged the government to revise its admission policy to Teachers Training Colleges (TTCs) saying that most of the students do not attain the required grades to join the middle level colleges.
She said that this would be a sure way to avoid teacher shortages in the future.
Speaking to Education News in her office, Inumba noted that the College was currently training teachers upgrading in Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) and Primary Teacher Education and also training teachers on the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
“Currently teachers need CBC skills so that students can be impacted with the required knowledge,” she said.
She added: “We want to produce learners who fit the job market in this noble profession, therefore those who haven’t taken the CBC training should do so promptly.”
