We have submitted the CATCH materials to the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development for review. We shall work on materials for PP1, PP1, and GRADE 1 - 6.
The review is ongoing.
With 20 million citizens under the age of 16, a new competency-based school curriculum that includes movement and nutrition, and a national priority on preparing children for long healthy lives, Kenya has the ingredients to succeed with CATCH. The collaboration will see Kenya adapt and implement the CATCH health education program as a supporting resource to the physical and health education Competency-Based Curricula (CBC) recently developed for pre-primary and primary school levels. These materials and accompanying capacity-building training will be offered to schools through proposed partnerships between W4G, the Ministry of Education (MoE), the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD), and County governments. This program will contribute to the learners achieving the curriculum's core skills and mindsets. Kenya's CBC is already doing a lot of good things to create that healthy environment and teach learners healthy habits. Therefore, CATCH will support the CBC by communicating and coordinating those schools' efforts and also help children "make the healthy choice the easy choice!"
