The Ministry of Education, Heritage and Arts, wishes to remind students that while they wait for the resumption of schools, the Ministry will continue to provide students with supplementary worksheets, educational video lessons and radio lessons.
These learning resources are available on the Ministry’s website, Education Channel aired through Walesi Fiji and broadcasted on FBC Radio Fiji 1 and Radio Fiji 2.
Permanent Secretary, Dr Anjeela Jokhan says, “All Heads of Schools have been requested to create communication platforms for ease of communication with their staff, parents and students for possible dissemination of necessary information and educational materials. I have also asked teachers to use the extended school closure to prepare additional supplementary resources such as activity sheets, recorded video lessons, etc. for their students and they have been advised to use the communication platforms created by their Heads of Schools for dissemination and communication purposes”.
Dr Jokhan urges all Heads of Schools and teachers to continue providing students with the much-needed academic support. Parents are also advised to continue to assist their children in home learning. We would like our teachers to explore innovative and creative means of keeping children engaged during these unprecedented times.
Teachers have been reminded to be more proactive and provide the much needed assistance.
The Ministry wishes to remind all Fijian students to remain indoors, continue with good hygiene practices and contribute towards protecting our nation and fellow Fijians in stopping the spread of COVID-19.
