The Ministry of Education Heritage and Arts held its consultation process for the Education Sector Strategic Plan (ESSDP) 2015-2018 in Suva today.

“This workshop provided an opportunity for stakeholders to interact, share ideas and to progress in a concerted effort towards accomplishing the 2015-2018 Education Sector Strategic Plans,” said the Ministry’s acting permanent secretary Mrs Basundra Kumar in her opening address.

The Ministry is committed to the vision Quality Education for Change Peace and Progress, which is aligned to Pillar 9 of the Peoples Charter for Change and Progress.

“Most of the targets oriented towards quality education outlined in the Ministry of Education Strategic Plan 2012-2014 were accomplished beyond expectation, despite the many challenges,” added Mrs Kumar.

She assured the stakeholders that their suggestions would be considered when formulating the strategic plan.

Three other similar public consultations will be held across the nation.
