Examining the Impact of the Ministry of Interioin CBC Implementation

This study examines the role of the Ministry of Interior in the implementation of Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). The research aims to evaluate how the ministry contributes to security, infrastructure, policy coordination, and community engagement in CBC implementation. A mixed-methods research design was employed, incorporating qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was collected through surveys, interviews with education stakeholders, and analysis of government reports. The findings reveal that the Ministry of Interior has played a crucial role in ensuring school security, particularly in regions affected by insecurity, facilitating infrastructure development, and fostering intergovernmental coordination. However, the study also identifies significant challenges, including inadequate security personnel, financial constraints, and resistance from some stakeholders due to limited awareness and training. The study concludes that strengthening inter-agency collaboration, increasing budgetary allocations, and enhancing community sensitization efforts are critical for effective CBC implementation. These findings have significant implications for policymakers, educators, and security agencies in ensuring a conducive learning environment for CBC. Further research is recommended to assess the long-term effects of the Ministry of Interior’s interventions on CBC outcomes.
