Thousands of students across the country may be exposed to misleading content in their quest for knowledge. This follows concerns by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) about the increasing circulation of unauthorised educational materials, particularly those targeting the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
