The CBC intends to be more practical and student-based. |
To achieve the national educational goals the government through KICD developed a Basic Education Curriculum Framework (BECF). |
These key values are included in the CBC curriculum to achieve the requirements of the Kenya constitution. |
These competencies are the pillars or the foundation of what should be learned by all learners from basic levels of learning upwards. |
This helps deal with pertinent and contemporary issues in the curriculum since students will be equipped with knowledge on how to handle those issues. |
It gives the student self-awareness, and self-esteem, and improves interpersonal skills among others. |
Every day new knowledge is coming up, old knowledge is becoming absolute, and new theories are being made. |
What are the 7 core competencies in CBC? |
The main competencies covered in CBC are communication and collaboration, self-efficacy, critical thinking and problem-solving, creativity and imagination, citizenship, digital literacy, and learning to learn. |
What are the core values of CBC? |
The main values that guide the implementation of CBC are responsibility, love, respect, unity, peace, integrity, patriotism, excellence, care and compassion, understanding and tolerance, and being ethical. |

The current high school (senior school) will offer different pathways depending on its infrastructure. |
The Basic Education Curriculum Framework (BECF) 2019 by KICD, specifies three (3) pathways. |
The assessment tools are the instruments and techniques that are used for evaluation and measurement to inform on the progress of knowledge acquisition. |
The competency-based education system comes with many tools that can be used to assess learners’ knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes for real-life application. |
The assessment tools can be formal or informal, they can be used to measure qualitatively or quantitively. |
The main assessment tools that are used include tests, checklists, rubrics, portfolios, oral questions, projects, learner profiles, and journals among others. |
The examination under this new curriculum is called the Competency Based Assessment (CBA). |
The CBA evaluates four main values, application of knowledge, skill, values, and attitude to solve real-life situations. |
The curriculum was developed by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) which is mandated to develop all curriculums for basic education in Kenya. |
The KNEC exams in CBC are KEYA in Grade 3, KPSEA in Grade 6, KMYA in Grade 9, KILEA, and KCBE in Grade 12. |
It is the new CBC grading system. |
The CBC grading includes exceeding expectations (EE), meeting expectations (ME), approaching expectations (AE), and below expectations (BE). |
The move was taken to equip the Kenyan child with the knowledge and skills for the 21st-century requirement. |
The government should provide more resources both physical and human and ensure teachers are well-trained on CBC curriculum implementation. |
The CBC intends to be more practical and student-based. |
To achieve the national educational goals the government through KICD developed a Basic Education Curriculum Framework (BECF). |
Pertinent and contemporary issues (PCIs) in the CBC curriculum are set to answer that question. |
The 4 Pertinent and Contemporary Issues (PCIs) areas in the curriculum are citizenship, health, life skills and values, and social and economic issues. |
The point awards are number values that are assigned for a specific task completed. |
This means they will gain creativity skills to solve other life problems. |
The areas include assessment, engagement, collaboration, brainstorming, among others. |
Kahoot: it is one of the most common platforms that can be used for creating games related to assessment. |
Quizizz: similar to Kahoot, it can be used for creating assessment-related games. |

The dataset does not contain personal, sensitive, or private information.
Bias, Risks, and Limitations
- Content bias may arise from limited access to all CBC documents or regional educational variations.
- The dataset depends on public and scraped online content, which may not fully represent all CBC subjects or grade levels.
Recommendations
- Further validation with curriculum experts is advised.
- Not to be used in isolation for national-level decisions without Ministry review.
