UNATU challenges changes to the education curriculum
The Uganda national teachers union has challenged the proposed changes to the education curriculum that seek to scrap off Agriculture among other subjects that are taught in Secondary schools at Ordinary Level.
This follows the proposal which was made on 21 December, 2016 during a meeting at State house Entebbe between the president, university vice chancellors, ministry of education officials and technocrats from the National Curriculum Development Centre.
The union secretary general James Tweheyo says such subjects should have been more concentrated in the learning process of the high school asserting that this will affect the agricultural sector.
