Presidential Working Party on Education Reforms (PWPER) has made radical proposals to the initial report on Competency Based Curriculum.
The draft reports show that the team has dropped some of the current provisions, improved on some and introduced completely new ones.
The draft report which is yet to be adopted, has many alterations with some mirroring the current 8-4-4 curriculum.
Here is how the current provisions compare with the proposed reforms to CBC.
The initial proposal was to retain national schools but under the proposed change the institutions will be scrapped.
While the task force had early recommended that the national examinations be abolished, the proposed reforms put more emphasis on the tests.
The initial plan was to have schools host different pathways for learners after Grade Nine tests; the proposed changes want each senior school to teach certain subjects.
Both proposals agree that Grade 6 exams will not be used to influence or place learners in senior secondary schools.
While the initial proposal was to have school-based assessments constitute 60 per cent, the new one says it will constitute 40 per cent.
The initial proposal was to do away with exams at Grade Nine, but the fresh ones seek to have passage tests administered by the Kenya National Examinations Council[Knec].
The early proposal was to retain Knec but the new one seeks to rename it to the Kenya National Assessment Council.
