Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>The National Action for Quality Education in Zambia-NAQEZ says it is disappointed with the lack of funding towards the implementation of the new school curriculum in the 2024 budget.<\/p>\n

Executive Director Aaron Chansa says this is an indication that the Ministry of Education neglected the planning process of the ambitious curriculum which requires adequate funding. Speaking during a media briefing in Lusaka today, Mr Chansa said this is evident as the 2024 budget shows no allocation to this particular program.<\/p>\n

He has since proposed the introduction of an education levy of K5 for households with television sets to support the new school curriculum and improve the quality of education in Zambia.<\/p>\n

Mr Chansa says with such a levy in place, citizens can help the government to raise about K500 Million annually to support the implementation of the new curriculum and the general education sector that still faces a lot of challenges.<\/p>\n
