• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for that protection. I will move to Clause 22, which deals with changes of premises of an ECDE centre. The changes must be notified to the County Education Board. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you have heard people coming up with centres and within a short time, they relocate or change and this affects children. Clause 25 deals with cancellation of registration certificate and provides for circumstances where this may be done and steps to be taken before the cancellation. I also want The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. ... view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: to mention that within the Bill, there is an appeal tribunal, where in case you feel the closure of such an institution is unfair, you can appeal. Part IV of the Bill provides for the management of ECDE centres and establishment of a board of management. When we sat as a Committee, we actually agreed that these institutions will be run independently, whether there is a public primary school or not. This is because many times, we take ECDE centres as a second thought. When you go to Part V, there is a provision for administration of early childhood education ... view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Clause 61 in Part VI gives the requirement that a certificate of accreditation is to be returned to the County Education Board on expiration. Again, we are going to amend this because if a certificate expires, you just need to apply for another one. It has expired and you do not have to physically return the certificate to the institution that offered it. Part VII sets out the quality of education and standards required to be maintained in the ECDE centres. It also provides for the establishment of an Early Childhood Quality Assurance Committee to ensure the implementation of policies, ... view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: I remember at the time we were joining ECDE centers at my area, we were required to put a hand across our heads. If you could not touch your ear that meant you could not access education. Some of us have some challenges. Others have special needs so we will have clear regulations and laws on who should join. There will be no limitation or interview at that early age to join an ECDE center. The Bill recognises the need to strengthen school inspection and ensure service delivery at ECDE centers. To equip ECDE centers to ensure that all free ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the privilege. As the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology, I support the Motion on deployment of chaplains to learning institutions. The main challenges we have had is indiscipline in our learning institutions, especially in the boarding schools. The foundation of a child is built from early childhood via the Early Childhood Development and Education (ECDE) centers all the way to the institutions of higher learning. The values that are instilled at the tender age are very critical when the person matures and takes up responsibilities in ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, but she will shock you. Her normal voice is not very attractive but when she is singing, she can do magic. I was only complimenting her and so, I am not out of order. view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I was just trying to emphasize that she has all those heavy credentials and a heavy CV. If Hon. Esther, the way I know her, never encountered a chaplain at her early age to get the values that were instilled by the chaplains at that tender age, I do not know where she would be today. For sure, she would not be an MP. My point is that we instill those good values in our children at an early age. We also hope that the Government will support the chaplains. We know some churches ... view
