"content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a saying that goes “a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step.” The country is looking forward to new curriculum, new methods of education and protection of the child rights entrenched in the Constitution. I have heard you, hon. Members and I thank you very greatly. History will judge you rightly that you have stood up on the occasion to support this very important law. On ECD, indeed, this is a very important thing. I have already asked the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to give me guidelines on how they intend to implement the ECD including the recruitment of teachers. The same thing applies to adult education. The contributions have been wonderful. The issue raised by my very good student, Mrs. Odhiambo-Mabona, on indigenous languages, non-formal education and the lack of use of different mediums of training are very important and very dear to the heart of the Ministry of Education. I hope that after 4th April, 2013, my successor in that Ministry will follow the example that we have set that only if you built, your children can you really talk about real growth for the sector of human resource development."
