    "content": "seen a 100 per cent transition to secondary schools, delocalization, Competency-Based Curriculum and JSS. All those programmes have taken place in the shortest time possible. We all agree that the right idea can be wrong if it is not done at the right time. I am here to support this Motion. I wish the Member was elected 10 years ago to come up with a proper policy. I come from a constituency which is marginalized in everything. We have witnessed the implementation of JSS, which is being done in a manner that does not comfort our parents. Several schools were selected to have JSS. So many schools were left out without considering the distance our students travel from one school to another. The JSS needs to be revised and domiciled in all primary schools to shorten the distance our students travel. Most of the schools in our country, not even in my constituency alone, lack the proper infrastructure to implement this programme. Some of them do not even have laboratories and adequate teachers. The teachers who were recruited recently were not trained to teach CBC. I call upon Hon. Members to go back to the drawing board - as suggested by the Hon. Member - and develop an adequately structured policy to implement CBC. I could have taken more time to contribute, but in the interest of time, I support the Motion and urge the Member to move further and ensure that the education sector properly implements the JSS education. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
