Description - Sowing Good Seed: Teaching Agriculture in Schools: The Swaziland (Eswatini) Experience by Comfort Mndebele Phd

This is not an academic paper. It is based on the thesis which Father David Gooday wrote and presented to the Institute of Education at London University, as well as Professor Comfort Mndebele's subsequent experience with training the teachers; and some inputs from the current (2018) Senior Inspector (Agriculture) in the Ministry of Education and Training, Mr. Elson Khoza, together with a number of individuals who had taken Modern Agriculture during the 1970s. Professor Bob Smith, who had a major role in curriculum development for the programme, provides an overview of the current status of agricultural teaching in schools in the developing world. We hope to show that it is a success story because those pupils who, while at school, underwent the training devised by the Schools Agriculture Panel, have benefited greatly from that experience. Whatever direction their careers may have taken, the youngsters who underwent the training which we devised have developed in many and various careers. Those boys and girls, now mature men and women, are approaching retirement and are able to look back on their working life in order to draw mature conclusions about their initial training.
