The Ominde report of 1964, the first report after independence, focused on education and
religious in Kenya. In this report, there was a recommendation that the religious education effort
was to bring about broad intellect and understanding including moral growth which religious
education has enhanced.

1976 which suggested that religious education did not do this probably.

It argued that a new subject was needed to gather for moral education and ethics. Social
education and ethics was to father for dimension of education in social relating and normative
dimension.

The Gachathi was not very positive on religious education and therefore made a case for
teaching of ethics which Ominde has rejected by claims that;

i. The teaching of religious education should not be regarded as the limits of the schools
contribution to ethical education
ii. The teaching of religious education and that of ethical should not continue to be mixed.
iii. There are a number of reasons why the formal form of religious education cannot
continue effective teaching of the ethics in the society.
