Motion text
THAT, aware that there are minimum requirements for enrolment of students to tertiary education in the country; further aware that not all students qualify for university or Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET) institutions due to lack of minimum grades for direct enrolment or financial constraints; acknowledging that there is need to provide technical skills to students who do not progress to university to reduce the ever increasing unemployment rate among the youth; cognizant of the fact that the lack of advanced education has led to a high rate of unemployment among the youth; appreciating that mandatory community service for all students upon completion of secondary school education would equip them with technical and life skills for the marketplace; further noting that the community service training will encourage learners to develop an understanding of civic responsibility to support and strengthen communities; this House therefore resolves that the Government through the Ministry of Education introduces mandatory community service to all learners upon completion of secondary school education.
