    "content": "Teso South, UDA): Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, I thank Hon. Ruku for bringing the Motion. Whereas I support the prayer that there is need to establish facilities to allow the implementation of JSS in all schools, there is a need for a proper funding plan. There is a need for a proper implementation policy framework. Hon. Temporary Speaker, allow me to draw the attention of Members to the aspect of quality. As we stand today, we are losing a generation of students, especially in the public schools where JSS is being implemented. Members have already adduced to the fact that only one teacher was posted. It was ill-advised to post-secondary trained teachers to teach JSS. Quoting the words sent by one of the teachers, they say: 'We are being subjected to a very difficult situation having being forced to teach subjects that we are not professionally trained for. It is frustrating. It is belittling. It is demoralizing to mention the least.’ If one teacher teaches all subjects, what is the quality? What I want to propose is that the Ministry must first asses the progress so far."
