At Murang’a Teachers Training College, we believe that gender equality is a cornerstone of inclusive education and sustainable development. As a teacher training institution, our mission goes beyond academic excellence to include empowering future educators to foster fairness, respect, and equal opportunity in all learning environments.
Our Commitment to Equality
Murang’a TTC promotes gender equality by ensuring that all students, regardless of gender, have equal access to:
- Quality training and academic resources
- Leadership opportunities in clubs and student governance
- Mentorship and support systems
- Safe and inclusive learning spaces
We remain committed to breaking down traditional stereotypes and empowering both male and female students to reach their full potential.
Empowering Future Educators
We recognize that the teachers we train today will shape the gender attitudes of generations to come. Therefore, gender sensitivity is woven into the curriculum through:
- Gender-responsive teaching approaches
- Courses on inclusive education
- Seminars and workshops on gender-based violence prevention and gender rights
Our student-teachers are encouraged to challenge bias and champion equity in the classrooms they will soon lead.
Gender Awareness Activities
Throughout the year, the college organizes a variety of gender-focused activities including:
- International Women’s Day and International Men’s Day celebrations
- Forums on gender-based violence, reproductive health, and mental well-being
- Student-led debates and essay competitions on gender equity topics
These events provide platforms for open dialogue, awareness, and action.
Working Together for Change
Murang’a TTC works closely with organizations such as the Ministry of Education, Gender Affairs Office, and local NGOs to advance gender mainstreaming in teacher training and campus policies.
“True progress happens when we give every student, regardless of gender, the same chance to lead, learn, and live with dignity.” – Principal, Murang’a TTC
