President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu emphasized that the quality of higher education in the Maldives can only be improved by first focusing on enhancing the quality of primary education.
Speaking during the third episode of the Rayyithunnaa Eku podcast, hosted by the President’s Office, President Muizzu stressed the importance of education in shaping the future of the nation and creating an educated citizenry. He highlighted that the government has made the education sector a top priority in its efforts for national development.
The President noted that in recent years, there has been a concerning decline in the number of students passing key subjects, such as Dhivehi, English, and Mathematics, in grades 1 to 7. He acknowledged this as a significant challenge and emphasized the government's focus on addressing it through targeted interventions.
According to President Muizzu, improving the quality of teachers and the education provided to children at the primary level is critical to solving this issue. By strengthening the foundation of education, students will be better equipped for higher education and future success.
He assured that the results of these efforts would be visible each year as the government continues to implement reforms aimed at improving the education system. The President’s remarks reflect the government's commitment to building a strong and effective education system from the very start of a student’s academic journey, ultimately contributing to the enhancement of higher education in the Maldives.
