- President Ali says, underscores necessity of addressing energy, climate security
Education Minister Priya Manickchand visited the construction site of the Monkey Mountain Secondary School on December 6. This transformative project aims to bring quality secondary education closer to the children of Monkey Mountain and surrounding Region Eight communities. The secondary school, once completed, will feature modern facilities, including classrooms, science and computer laboratories, a library, and dormitories to accommodate students from nearby villages. The school’s design incorporates modern standards, while addressing the unique needs of the hinterland region, ensuring it is sustainable and conducive to learning. During the site inspection, Minister Manickchand emphasised the critical role this institution will play in the development of the region. The construction of the school, a nine-month project, is part of the Ministry of Education’s broader vision to ensure universal access to secondary education in Guyana. The facility is expected to cater to hundreds of students, offering a curriculum on par with schools on the coast, thus bridging the gap between hinterland and urban educational opportunities.
