One of the top priorities of this government is to build an educated and talented generation, said President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih.
He made this statement at the awarding ceremony of the President’s Award & High Achievers Scholarship for GCE A-level high achievers in the year 2021, held at Ghiyasuddin International School on Tuesday night.
Highlighting the importance given by this government to education, President Salih said the sweetest fruit to be planted on the tree of nationalism is educated, children. There is no one who does not want their children to become educationally competent, he said, adding that governments should recognize this and formulate policies and provide opportunities.
"The sweetest fruit to be planted on the tree of nationalism is educated, children. Parents, guardians, and guardians, even if they are not educated, their children can become educated and excel. Recognizing this and providing opportunities is what governments have to do. For that reason, building an educated, skilled generation is one of the top priorities of the government at the moment,” the President said.
President Solih said one of the top priorities of this government is to build an educated and talented generation. Adding that a satellite school and other facilities have been established to ensure that no child is excluded.
President Solih also discussed education and skill development prospects and emphasized the increase in training programs provided by the government. He said that efforts to establish TVET Centres and Junior Colleges were currently underway on two islands and that similar facilities would be established on additional islands soon.
Highlighting the initiative to provide affordable education, the President said that 14,711 students had enrolled in the government's free degree program so far and that 4696 students had graduated from the program. He also noted the initiation of secondary education on seven islands, as well as the introduction of higher secondary education on three more islands.
Speaking to the students in attendance, President Solih said that they were about to enter a dynamic world with different cultures and societal norms. He advised the students to be wary of negative and undue influences that could sway them away from their true objectives. The President urged students to remain true to their own identities, heritage, culture, and most importantly, the Islamic faith that would guide them to the righteous path.
The President awarded scholarship letters to six students that achieved the highest results in the GCE A-level examinations. Five students were from the Centre for Higher Secondary Education (CHSE) and one was from Kulhudhuffushi Jalaluddin School. All six of the top achievers were female students. The President congratulated the award recipients and wished them success in the future.
