By Benson Aswani,

West Pokot County government in collaboration with the World Vision organization has partnered towards developing a three-day training for kindergarten teachers on the new education curriculum.

According to reports by the county government, the training is set to target teachers especially from the Masol ward.

West Pokot ECDE County Director Mr Joseph Tonyirwa organized the training that kicked off on Tuesday 16th April in Chepareria.

Speaking during the opening of the activity which is being organized at St. Marks Chepareria,Tonyirwa stated that the main goal of the training is to ensure that kindergarten teachers get more skills to achieve the curriculum before the school opens.

In addition,Tonyirwa encouraged the teachers to take the training seriously so that they can improve their skills in dealing with pupils ahead of the new term next month.

“We are continuing training for kindergarten teachers in this area so that they will have more skills to handle kindergarten pupils when the schools open,” said Tonyirwa.

On the other hand,Veronica Kalekamuk who is WeiWei ward ECDE associate noted the importance of the activity in ensuring that teachers gain more skills to serve pupils.

“This training is especially important at this time to ensure that teachers get more skills to serve students,” said Veronica.

Likewise, her statement was further emphasized by his Lomut ward colleague Geoffrey Kaliatun.

Meanwhile, kindergarten teachers who are attending the training are led by Masol Chairman for Kindergerten teachers Solomon Lolpoita who has praised the great contribution of the World Vision organization in the education sector in the area.

“The world vision organization has been very important in ensuring that our children get an education without the challenges that were witnessed before,” said Lolpoita.
