    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this Bill is essential in the sense that the management of ECDE centres across the country has not been taken seriousness. Even the structures in the ECDE centres have been relegated. Children at ECDE centres currently learn under trees and in dilapidated buildings. This Bill seeks to address that issue by ensuring that any child who is in an ECDE centre should be in a building that is standard. For example, both primary school and high school children should live well, be taught well, get the relevant learning materials and be well taken care of in an ECDE centre. In fact, it spells out the minimum standard requirements. Many children who are taken to ECDE centres are to be baby-seated. They only sing songs and are not taught meaningful curriculum. However, this Bill spells out clearly what is supposed to be taught at the ECDE centres. In fact, it urges every County Executive Committee Member for Education to ensure that the curriculum followed at the ECDE centres is the one that has been developed by the Ministry responsible for education or ECDE educators. With those remarks, I beg to support this Bill. I urge Members to support this Bill so that it materialises."
