The State’s achievements in the education sector are something to be proud of, Minister for General Education V. Sivankutty has said. Officials of the General Education department should strive hard to preserve these gains, he said.
He was speaking after inaugurating a State-level workshop for education officials here on Wednesday.
The Minister said no other State could come close to achieving what Kerala had done. It was always the State that others looked to emulate. All children in the school-going age in the State took school admission. It also had the lowest dropout rate. A good number of schoolchildren completed Class XII. Also, schools had trained teachers. These were all huge strengths.
