Abstract:
Well Ladies and Gentlemen, since it appears that nobody else wants to say anything, may I indicate the decisions reached by the Cabinet on some of the matters that have been raised within the last twenty four hours or so?. EDUCATION: Firstly, with respect to the Secondary Education System, the point raised about graduates and non-graduates in Junior Secondary Schools and Assisted Secondary Schools, the
Minister of Education and Culture has been directed by Cabinet to re-examine the existing ratio of graduates and non-graduates, taking into account the new education policy guide-lines approved by the Cabinet in September, 1975, in respect of Secondary Education and the organisation of Junior Secondary and Senior Comprehensive Schools. Secondly, the need to review existing Teacher-training programmes in the light of these new guide-lines.
