Ministry of Education Lowers Diploma Grade in Primary Teacher Education
Ministry of Education Lowers Diploma Grade in Primary Teacher Education. Candidates can now submit an application on the KUCCPS website if they want to enroll in Teacher Training Colleges (TTCs) and study the Diploma in Primary Teacher Education (DPTE) and Diploma in Early Childhood Teacher Education (DECTE) programs.
A site for online applications has been established by the Kenya University and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) for applicants who passed the KCSE exams between 2020 and 2022.
Updates have been made to both the DECTE entry grade and the DPTE. All that is needed to apply is a mean grade of C (plain) and Ksh 1,500, which will be sent to KUCCPS via Mpesa.
The application deadline is listed as July 28, 2023 on the KUCCPS portal. Visit this page to apply for KUCCPS.
Candidates had to initially earn a C (plain) or better in the subject clusters, but that criterion has subsequently been removed.
The five subject criterion will no longer be used to place a candidate into TTC as long as they have a mean grade of C (plain), allowing them to enroll in a course to study teaching.
