With face-to-face classes back on track, the Ministry of Education says it’s in the process of implementing what it calls an “Academic Recovery Programme”.
It’s part of the COVID-19 Accelerated Response and Recovery Project.
School closures and other disruptions due to the pandemic, according to a release from the Ministry, have negatively affected teachers and students and the Academic Recovery Programme seeks to provide psycho-social support for both teachers and students.
In this regard, two webinars on Suicide Prevention are scheduled for teachers from Primary schools on Wednesday and Thursday this week from 5 in the afternoon, via the zoom platform.
The webinars will be aired live on the GIS Facebook page, as well as GIS Channel 22, and the GIS live stream (gistvgrenada.org).
The Ministry of Education says it will continue to provide support to ensure that mental health is given priority in this ever-changing and challenging environment, as it aims to enable all students to succeed.
