Many expect new teaching recruits to arrive in the classroom —just out of college and with a smattering of student teaching under their belts — ready to go. They expect teachers to be armed with the right tools and skills, but reality has taught us this doesn’t happen Recent research statistics has shown that student’s academic performance is falling in a worrying trend. Kenyans cannot afford to complacent about it, thus their arise an immediate need to conduct an investigation on the issue of teachers quality to establish whether it’s a factor contributing to the falling academic performance.
