The government is preparing to revise and reform education-related policies in order to address persistent challenges in Bangladesh’s primary education sector, said State Minister for Primary and Mass Education Bobby Hajjaj on Saturday.
He made the remarks while speaking to journalists during a visit to Shahittika Model Government Primary School in Cox’s Bazar.
The state minister said that the government has already taken several initiatives aimed at resolving key issues such as the shortage of teachers, improving the overall quality of education, and addressing long-standing demands of educators.
However, he noted that more comprehensive policy-level reforms are being considered to ensure sustainable improvements in the sector.
According to him, education reforms are necessary to resolve existing structural problems and improve learning outcomes for students across the country.
“If the existing problems in the education sector are properly addressed, many economic and social challenges can also be reduced,” he said, highlighting the broader impact of quality education on national development.
Earlier in the day, Bobby Hajjaj attended a workshop held at the Leadership Training Centre in Cox’s Bazar under the pre-primary and primary school improvement project. The project is being implemented in Cox’s Bazar, Bhasan Char and Bandarban.
Speaking as the chief guest at the workshop, he reiterated the government’s commitment to strengthening primary education and improving institutional capacity.
He also assured that the government is working to meet the justified demands of teachers to ensure a more effective and supportive education environment.
Officials from the Directorate of Primary Education, including Director General Shahina Ferdousi, Director Mohammad Kamrul Hasan and Project Director Mohammad Amzad Hossen, were present at the event.
