    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education, regarding the fate of teachers holding P1 certificates following the change in policy by the Ministry of Education and Teachers Service Commission, raising the minimum entry qualifications into the Teaching Service from certificates to diploma. In the Statement, the Committee should– (1) Explain the fate of all teachers who only hold a P1 certificate and might not pursue the required diploma course due to high tuition fees charged by colleges per practicum requirement and Kenyan National Examination Council (KNEC) assessment fee; (2) State measures in place by the Ministry of Education and Teacher Service Commission (TSC) to support teachers who hold P1 certificate upgrade to diploma; and, (3) State whether teachers who currently hold a P1 certificate will be given priority by the TSC during recruitment once they upgrade to the diploma level. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
