Addressing residents during a function in Kangundo, Kasimbi questioned the government’s strategy to ensure a smooth transition for Grade Nine learners under alarm over incomplete grade nine classrooms for the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
She lamented that with schools reopening in just two weeks, half of the required classrooms remain incomplete, casting doubts on the readiness of schools to accommodate learners.
“What miracle will be done to ensure these classrooms are completed in time? Parents and students are anxious, and the government seems unbothered, all they are saying is that there will be classes,” she said.
Kasimbi criticized the Ministry of Education and the national government for what she termed as a glaring lack of planning and urgency.
