A key objective of primary teacher education is to develop the basic theoretical and practical knowledge about the teaching profession, so that the teacher's attitude and abilities can be geared towards professional commitment and competence. KLB'S DISTINCTION PTE SERIES has been developed with this objective in mind. The approach adopted is cognisant of the fact that the primary school learner is the centre of the primary teacher education. The aim of the series is to foster a consciousness for educational excellence in every primary school student-teacher. 

The main objective of teaching the SCIENCE COURSE at the primary school level is to equip learners with scientific knowledge and practical skills that they can apply in their day-to-day life. DISTINCTION SCIENCE FOR PTE has been written with this objective in mind. The book comprehensively covers the revised PTE Science syllabus by the KENYA INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION (KIE).
