PERMANENT Secretary of the Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development (MEHRD), Dr. Franco Rodie has issued a strong call to action, urging the business community to take an active role in shaping the national curriculum to better prepare young people for the workforce.
Speaking at the recent National Business Forum, he highlighted that preparing our youth is a shared responsibility.
“The government, through the Ministry of Education, continues to invest in and lead education reform, but we ask the business sector to help shape curricular that reflects emerging labour market needs,” said Rodie.
He also emphasized on the importance of aligning education with the country’s economic and social development priorities.
Rodie stressed the need for training that supports economic growth and addresses challenges in the social sector.
The Permanent Secretary called for renewed efforts to strengthen focus on practical and lifelong skills to ensure young people are ready to transition into employment and to take on leadership roles in the future.
