A sneak peek into this week's education pullout, Mwalimu.

SNAPSHOT

Imagine a student who is inattentive, poorly behaved in class and getting bad grades.

You might think the child is careless and never attentive. But, there is also a possibility that this child is one of the 48,000 pupils who are suffering from hearing impairment, which is gradually affecting his or her grades. Get a detailed report in New Vision's education pullout Mwalimu today. (You can access the newspaper online HERE)

PARENTING

Talk to your children about sex

The sex education debate has been gaining momentum over the years, but now it has reached a pitch that cannot be ignored.

While some say the time is now for all parents and schools to openly talk sex to their children, some are saying it's suicidal to lift the veil off something the children didn't even know existed.

Even matters of curriculum have come up; what do you cover at which point? What do you tell the children? Details in today's New Vision.
