This is a great initiative by the Ministry of Education, BUT why so many typos all over the website (I'm not even going to touch the poor design) - surely this is sending the wrong kind of message when a website focused on education and teachers has so many errors.<br>
<br>E.g. "National Educational Portal for Kenya <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.elimuportal.net/">NEPK.</a>
This is an initiative for Teachers by Teachers to help educators share
<b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Leaning</span></b> Materials, Lesson Plans amongst others to aid in the capacity
development amongst Teachers. Teachers can <b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">occasionslly</span></b> get <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"><b>syllubus</b> </span>
updates from this portal and ensure they are practicing using up to date
materials"<br><br>PS Ndemo, any idea can we direct our complaints? <br><br><br>Best, <br><font color="#888888"><br>Ory<br>
