    "content": "I support the fact that we allowed this important Motion to take priority because as a country we need to make decisions. Looking at some of the students who started CBC when they were very young, they did not taste 8-4-4 and I really feel sorry for them because as a country if we decide to go back to 8-4-4 what will happen to them and where will they begin. Will they have to do a crush course so they get to know what 8-4-4 is all about since they never experienced it? These are the students we need to look at. Maybe going back to 8-4-4 is not the solution. The actual solution should be finding a way of doing CBC that works for everyone. It should not be only for those who are in the urban set-up but also those in the rural set-up because the ones affected most are students and pupils back in the rural set-up. Again, CBC exams normally examine students based on their talents and level of competence. Sometimes, we are unable to structure and put this on paper and say this is how they will be tested because how do you know a student has a talent in writing and another does not but has talent in speaking? Do you give the one with a talent in writing a lower grade in speaking or the other way round just because they do not have the same level of competence?
