    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The main reason we have this is to have a logical flow after Clause 20. You will realize that there are no structures. Every education sector or component must have structures for the management and administration of education centres. Earlier on, you would realize that if you go to a secondary school in this country, you would have a board of management, principal, staff, teachers and the student body. In early childhood education, we had not established structures on how it is going to be managed. This Bill is going to cure that. Secondly, it is about the level of education of teachers. Who are those teachers? In this country, individuals who know how to speak English and Kiswahili are picked from the streets and made teachers in early education centers. This Bill is going to ensure that every teacher who is going to teach in early childhood education centres should be well trained, certified and a registered teacher with the TSC. Lastly, this Bill wants to maintain the necessary teaching and learning materials and equipment and maintain a data bank as a centre. It should have materials, teaching and learning aids. It is a necessary clause to ensure that early childhood centres meet the required standards."
