IN a bid to expand access to quality education across the country, the Ministry of Education has taken the Mathhematics Intervention Programme online, ensuring that students in even the most remote communities can benefit from targeted support.
Minister of Education, Sonia Parag, personally engaged with students during virtual sessions Wednesday morning, connecting with Kato Secondary School in Region Eight, Baramita Secondary School in Region One, and Dora Secondary School along the Demerara River.
The move to virtual learning forms part of the Ministry’s broader strategy to improve mathematics outcomes nationwide.
Minister Parag emphasised the importance of equipping students with critical problem-solving skills, stating that the programme aims to nurture a generation of confident and capable learners.
Education officials noted that the initiative reflects the government’s commitment to bridging educational gaps between urban and hinterland communities. By leveraging technology, the Ministry seeks to provide equitable learning opportunities, ensuring that distance and location no longer limit students’ academic potential.
This effort aligns with recent Government initiatives to strengthen Guyana’s education system, including enhanced teacher training, the provision of learning resources, and the integration of digital tools into classroom instruction. The Ministry remains steadfast in its mission to support students in achieving excellence in mathematics, a cornerstone for national development.
