    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, considering that education is a fundamental human rights and every child is entitled to it; mindful that when we ensure that children have access to a rights-based, quality education that is rooted in gender equality, we create a ripple effect of opportunity that impacts generations to come; acknowledging that education enhances lives and ends generational cycles of poverty and disease and provides a foundation for sustainable development; aware that quality basic education better equips girls and boys with the knowledge and skills necessary to adapt to socio- economic challenges and enable them take an active role in social, economic and political decision-making as they transit to adolescence and adulthood; further aware that educated adults are more likely to have fewer children, to be informed about appropriate child-rearing practices and to ensure that their children start school on time and are ready to learn; this House resolves that the Government abolishes the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education Examinations and provide for a continuous, uninterrupted education system from level one to Form Four in order to accord all Kenyan students universal basic education."
