Mrs. Sandra Morton, Educator Extraordinaire, encouraged the participants to implement the skills that they have learned.
“I am sure that all of you are serious about education so all that education pedagogy that you learn throughout the year, you don’t just learn it and let it fly in the wind. You are supposed to use it and show that you have a different mindset to the persons that you meet in the school.”

“I embarked on this journey with the sole purpose of taking in as much information as possible in order to maximize my potential and help myself be the best educator I can be. However, there were many challenges throughout this year and in order to overcome them, this required me to make some adjustments in my approach.”
The closing ceremony marked a significant milestone in the Ministry of Education’s efforts to transform the educational sector through innovative practices and the latest pedagogical strategies.
