Book publishers are counting on continued piloting of Kenya’s new Competence Based Curriculum (CBC) to save the Sh5 billion investment they have made in printing books before a recent reversal of the plan to fully roll out the new syllabus in January.
Kenya Publishers Association (KPA) chairman, Lawrence Njagi, yesterday said Education secretary Amina Mohamed had clarified that piloting the new curriculum would continue till 2020, allaying fears that publishers would incur huge losses with the indefinite suspension of the 2-6-3-3-3 curriculum.
