    "content": "Lastly, I have seen a proposal on the design of ECDE centres in this Bill. I have looked at some of the ECDE centres that are put up by county governments and I think it is important that we insist on having a standard design for all of them. We should have something that is learner friendly, accessible to small children and sizeable so that children can have space to play. I have seen standard size classrooms in all the primary schools in my county and that is the size they are using to build ECDE centres. They require something a lot bigger because they need space within classrooms for activities. These children do not sit at their desks to write. They play and do other activities within their classrooms. The ECDE classes are of the same size as those of primary schools because of the cost implication. In my county, a classroom for ECDE costs about Kshs1.8 million to build. The exact classroom built under the NG-CDF costs about Kshs600,000. We need to be careful. I do not know what we are going to do in the Constitution to have education under the national Government, so that we can take control, use little funds and develop our children."
