    "content": "First, I would like to quote the words of the former late President Nelson Mandela on matters education. He said: “The most powerful weapon to use to change the world is education.” It is true education has been changing. There are many dynamics that are going on. When you look at many other professional bodies whether it is the Law Society of Kenya or doctors, they are encouraged to be going for continuous development because the environment is dynamic. The TSC had such a wonderful idea to come up with this but, the challenge is how it is going to be implemented. We salute them for the proposal but not the implementation. Many such practices at the international level, when an employer wants to improve efficiency, they take their staff for that development. So, we humbly request the TSC to look for a way of funding because teachers are already stressed. It is a wonderful idea but we want it to go through public participation and if possible we look for a funding framework Otherwise, I support the Petition. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
