CBE Retooling: Purpose and Importance in the CBC Curriculum
The Competency-Based Education (CBE) framework is at the heart of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). As CBC continues to be implemented across schools, CBE retooling has become essential for teachers, school leaders, and education stakeholders.
What is CBE Retooling?
CBE retooling refers to structured training and professional development that equips educators with the skills, knowledge, and mindset needed to effectively implement the CBC. It focuses on understanding competencies, learner-centered instruction, formative assessment, and authentic learning experiences.
Purpose of CBE Retooling
The main purpose of CBE retooling is to:
- Help teachers clearly understand CBC competencies and learning outcomes
- Improve lesson planning, assessment, and reporting under CBC
- Shift teaching from content delivery to competency development
- Ensure consistency and quality in CBC implementation across schools
Importance of Retooling in CBC
CBE retooling is important because it:
- Enhances teacher confidence and effectiveness
- Improves learner engagement and skills acquisition
- Supports proper assessment using rubrics and performance tasks
- Aligns teaching practices with national CBC expectations
- Promotes lifelong learning skills such as creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration
Without proper retooling, CBC implementation becomes challenging and ineffective.
