State Minister for Primary and Mass Education Bobby Hajjaj has said in line with the government's election manifesto and the education vision of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, the country's education system will be developed to help students become global citizens while also equipping them with the skills needed for their future careers, reports BSS.
He made the remarks while speaking at a view-exchange meeting on 'expanding music, dance and cultural education in primary schools, developing a new curriculum and producing skilled teachers' organised by the Ministry of Primary and Mass Education in the capital on Wednesday.
Teachers and experts from the music, dance, drama and fine arts departments of various universities across the country took part in the meeting.
The state minister said the expansion of music, dance and sports-based education at the primary level will create a significant demand for specialised teachers and instructors in the future. This will open new employment opportunities for the graduates in music, dance, fine arts, drama and sports, while also establishing sustainable career pathways in these fields, he added.
He projected that approximately 50,000 to 60,000 new jobs will be created in the sector over the next five years.
Seeking cooperation from the universities, Bobby Hajjaj said, "We want your students to have the opportunity to join primary schools as teachers in the future.
