Principal of the Herbert Morrison Technical High School in St James wants members of the Jamaican Diaspora to help build science and technology laboratories across the island. Paul Adams said "science and technology would be the foundation for transforming high school education and improving performance in all subject areas in high schools". "The laboratories that now exist would never be able to produce quality students," he added. According to Mr. Adams state-of-the-art laboratories are needed for students at the junior level and those preparing for Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination and the Advanced Level examination. While high schools should be outfitted with reading and mathematics laboratories, until the problems at the early childhood level are fixed. In his remarks, Education Minister Andrew Holness said the National Education Trust, which is to be established for infrastructural development, would also be used to build laboratories in schools. A draft action plan for yesterday’s education workshop will be presented at the plenary session today. The conference ends today with focus on economic growth and Investment development and the role of the church in social cohesion. More Articles
