Major educational shift coming for secondary schools

Подробнее о видео

From September, secondary schools will become the nucleus of technological and vocational education in Barbados, with plans for one secondary school to be converted entirely for practical training for hundreds of young people in the future.

Minister of Training and Tertiary Education, Sandra Husbands, announced this on the latest edition of The People’s Business.

She outlined plans for the new ministry to provide more places for technical and vocational education, as courses are currently oversubscribed by some 2,000 each year.

And it is the plant of the Graydon Sealy Secondary School, formerly the Garrison Secondary, that is to be repurposed, after it is relocated from Paddock Road, St. Michael, to Chelston Park, Collymore Rock, also in St. Michael.
