The Ministry of Education, Youth and Information will be doubling the janitorial grant allocation to primary schools when the 2016/17 academic year commences in September.

Prime Minister, the Most Hon. Andrew Holness, says the Government is committed to ensuring that all students receive a full secondary education.

Since the introduction of the Career Advancement Programme (CAP) six years ago, approximately 48,301 students have been trained in technical and vocational skills as well as 5,622 through the General Programme of Literacy and Numeracy.

The country’s youth must pursue success in all aspects of their lives, in order  to achieve prosperity.

Education, Youth and Information Minister, Senator the Hon. Ruel Reid, is confident that the Government can sustain the proposed tuition fee policy which takes effect at the start of the 2016/17 academic year, in September.
