Njenga offers solution to get it scrapped. I think we need to invest  more on quality public education and minimize private education. We should levy a tax on each household to be used to build school infrastructure and pay teachers. Cbc to me seems like an attempt to rewind the clocks

I dont know of CBC but I now know 8-4-4 was not working.
My kid started with 8-4-4 and I thought it was great - they did a lot of things - like we did
Lots of rote learning.
Until I moved her to Cambridge education systems.
Her workload reduced drastically - infact rarely do homework
But her brain opened up - because she was being thought to critical think.

Rote learning doesnt work.

IF CBC is like Cambridge - go for it. It's appear similar - model wise - but do away with rote learning

And focus on STEM - Maths, English and Science - the rest are not very neccessary.

Nope chief, go back to the drawing board. In the third world public education does not work, anything public fails automatically because we are a low trust society with no shared ethical values. New taxes are a non starter. We are up to our necks in taxes, we don't have a revenue problem in this country, we waste too much on the wrong kind of expenditures, on feeding ugly bloated oily faced creatures called waheshimiwa, on fraud, duplication and corruption.
