||Govt to Review School Discipline Framework||

By Lucky Phiri

The Ministry of Education says plans are underway to review the school disciplinary framework in response to changes in the learning environment across the country.

The move follows reported cases of indiscipline among pupils in schools.

Education Permanent Secretary KELVIN MAMBWE says the review is intended to address emerging disciplinary challenges among learners.

Dr. MAMBWE says the Ministry remains committed to ensuring a conducive learning environment for all pupils.

He told ZNBC News that discipline is a behavioural issue that requires a collective effort from all stakeholders.

Dr. MAMBWE has urged parents and guardians to take a more active role in instilling discipline in learners.

He said shifts in the global environment have made it necessary to revisit the current disciplinary framework.

Meanwhile, stakeholders in the education sector have welcomed the development.

||On Competency based education||
Practical education is important because it helps learners apply what they learn in real-life situations, making knowledge more meaningful and easier to understand. It also develops skills, problem-solving ability, and confidence, which are essential for employment and everyday life.

|| WHAT IS MEANINGFUL LEARNING?||

Meaningful learning is when new knowledge is actively connected to what a learner already knows, making it relevant, deeply understood, and applicable to real-life situations. Unlike rote memorization, it emphasizes comprehension, critical thinking, and long-term retention.
